Question

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (-2, -1) and has a slope of 5.
y - 1 = 5(x - 2)

y + 1 = 5(x + 2)

y + 2 = 5(x + 1)

y - 2 = 5(x - 1)

Answer 1

For the line to pass through (-2, -1), the equation must hold true for x=-2 and y=-1. So, you should plug those values into the equation and find out which one satisfies.
