The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (–5, –1) and (10, –7) is . what is the standard form of the equation for this line?

Point-Slope form:  

standard form:  

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form is given by:

The point-slope form is given by:

point as point

Let's find the slope:

1. So, point slope form can be written as:

2. Rearranging this equation and bringing all x's and y's to one side and the number to another side will give us the standard form. So:

But A, B, and C (standard form) needs to be integers, so to get rid of the denominator , we multiply the whole equation by 15. So we have:

We can factor out a 3, so it becomes:

So standard form is

p> q if you calculate p is100 q is 79
