Question

Line m has slope -2 and contains the point (3, -7). Which of the following is a point-slope equation of line m?

A. y - 7 = -2(x + 3)

B. y + 7 = -2(x - 3)

C. y + 7 = -2(x + 3)

D. y - 7 = -2(x - 3)

Answer 1

wouldnt it be c .

Answer 2

Not quite.

Answer 3

or itss b

Answer 4

Recall the general form for point slope is

\(y - y_0 = m(x-x_0)\)

Answer 5

So yes, it's B.
