Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through (–1, 5) with a slope of 2 in standard form.

–2x – y = –7

2x – y = –7

2x – y = 11

–2x + y = –11

Answer 1

Standard form is
ax+by=c so where would your (x,y) and slope go?

Answer 2

y-y0 = m(x-x0)
y-(-1)=2(x-5)
y+1=2x-10
therefore, 2x-y = 11
