HELP WILL GIVE MEDAL AND FAN FOR BEST ANSWER

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (-5, 1) with a slope of three halves.

y - 5 = three halves(x + 1)

y + 1 = three halves(x - 5)

y + 5 = -three halves(x - 1)

y - 1 = three halves(x + 5)

thx...but when u explain it it is confusing:( @vinnv226

anonymous · Answer

Where did I confuse you? You have all the variables, you just need to plug them in. M is the slope, which is 3/2 here. x_1 is the x coordinate of your point, and y_1 is the y coordinate of your point.

oh ok i got it thx you sry i must hav been misreading it

caitlinnr14 · Answer

so it would be the first one ? @vinnv226

anonymous · Answer

No, make sure you're plugging in correctly.
m=3/2
x_1=-5
y_1=1

caitlinnr14 · Answer

so it would be  y - 1 =3/2(x + 5)
