Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through (2, 5) with a slope of 3 in point-slope form.

y – 2 = 3(x – 5)

y + 8 = 3(x + 5)

y + 5 = 3(x + 2)

y – 5 = 3(x – 2)

Answer 1

if i told you the point-slope frm is \[y - y_1 = m (x - x_1)\]
where
m = slope
x1 = x coordinate
y1 = y coordinate

will that help you @evergirl ?

Answer 2

a little not really

Answer 3

what is your slope here?

Answer 4

idk

Answer 5

hint: look at your question

Answer 6

3

Answer 7

it is stated right there

Answer 8

yes so m =3

Answer 9

now what is the x coordinate?

Answer 10

(2, 5)

Answer 11

the x coordinate. not the point. you know what the x-coordinate is, right?

Answer 12

no

Answer 13

got it now?

Answer 14

It is clear that
y – 5 = 3(x – 2)
It has slope 3 and if x=2, then y=5
