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

The equation with one point given and given slope is given by:

\[\huge y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\]

Here m= 5 and \((x_1, y_1)\) = (-2, -1)

Put and find the equation..

Answer 2

Is it D.?

Answer 3

See, -(-) becomes +..

\[\large y- (-1) = 5(x - (-2))\]
Now solve it..

Answer 4

Its A. or B.

Answer 5

Is it A

Answer 6

It is B..

Answer 7

-(-) becomes +

So,

y + 1 = 5(x + 2)
