Question

write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.
(-3, -5); m= -2/5
A)y+= -2/5(x-8)
B)y+5= (-2/5)x-3
C)y-5=-2/5(x+3)
D) )y-5=-2/5(x-3)

Answer 1

point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)
when m = slope and given the point (x1, y1)

Answer 2

y-y1=m(x-x1) so
y-(-5)=(-2/5)(x-(-3))
