Point: (1, 9); Slope: 5

A.
y – 1 = 5(x + 9)

B.
y – 9 = 5(x + 1)

C.
y – 9 = 5(x – 1)

D.

Answer 1

If you help me then I will fan you and give you a medal.

Answer 2

Point-Slope Equation of a Line:

y-y1= m(x-x1)


m=slope

you get x1 and y1 from the given coordinates
(x1,y1)

plug your values in the equation

what answer did you get?

Answer 3

\[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\]

Answer 4

x1 is 1
y1 is 9
m is 5

Answer 5

\[y-9=5(x-1)\]

Answer 6

Which should be C.
