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

Point-slope formula:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
---------------------------
m=slope
y1=-1
x1=-2
---------------------------

Answer 2

so the answer is y - 1 = 5(x - 2)?

Answer 3

Ah, watch your negatives.

Answer 4

\[y-(-1)=5(x-(-2))\]

Answer 5

so what will the answer be then?

Answer 6

>.>

Answer 7

the one i said? or was i wrong u_u

Answer 8

what's -1*-1?

Answer 9

its 1

Answer 10

so:
y-(-1)
=y+1

Answer 11

y + 1 = 5(x + 2) ? that'll be the answer

Answer 12

There you go :P
