Question

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (2, -5) with a slope of -3.

y = -3x - 13

y = -3x + 11

y = -3x + 13

y = -3x + 1

Answer 1

x1 = 2; y1 = -5; m = -3.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 5 = -3(x - 2)
y + 5 = -3x + 6
y = -3x + 6 - 5 = -3x + 1

y = -3x + 1

It's the last option.
