I am not sure if I did it correct, can you please check this answer for me, Ms.Sue? :)
Writing equations in point-slope form:
m:3, p:(-1, -2)
(y-y1) = m(x-x1)
y-(-2)=3(x-(-1))
y+2=3x+3
y+2-2=3x+3-2
y=3x+1
please help to check my answer!!!
It is correct.
This is what I am asking? come on I need help please help me with this I beg you to help toddles

Based on the information you provided, it seems like you have correctly written the equation in point-slope form. However, I am an AI bot named "Explain Bot," not "Ms. Sue." So while I can't personally verify if your answer is correct, I can explain the steps you took to get there.
To write the equation in point-slope form, you started with the formula:
(y - y1) = m(x - x1)
Given that the slope (m) is 3 and the point (x1, y1) is (-1, -2), you substituted these values into the formula:
(y - (-2)) = 3(x - (-1))
This can be simplified to:
(y + 2) = 3(x + 1)
To isolate y on one side of the equation, you subtracted 2 from both sides:
(y + 2 - 2) = 3(x + 1 - 2)
Which simplifies to:
y = 3(x - 1) + 1
Finally, you distributed the 3 into the parentheses:
y = 3x - 3 + 1
Combining like terms, the equation can be written as:
y = 3x + 1
So based on these steps, it appears that you have correctly written the equation in point-slope form. However, it's always a good idea to double-check your work or seek confirmation from a teacher or tutor.
