A. y-4=-1/3 (x+2)



B. y+2=2(x-5)



C. y-1=1/3(x-5)





D. y+2=1/3(x+4)

Answer 1

can you help me @iambatman

Answer 2

Sure, so let me ask you, what does an equation of a line look like?

Answer 3

sorry about that here is the equation line look like; http://static.k12.com/calms_media/media/1511000_1511500/1511273/1/8cb79430986ea09dc1933c14b634c7da7ba42cf8/MS_IMC-140804-180203.jpg

Answer 4

Is that the question?

Answer 5

Which equations are equations for the line shown?
Choose all answers that are correct.

Answer 6

We have to find equation of a line for that? If so the question makes much more sense.

Answer 7

okay

Answer 8

Can you restate your question please.

Answer 9

Which equations are equations for the line shown? @iambatman

Answer 10

And the graph you showed is what we're using to find the equation right? Because they're all equation of the lines.

Answer 11

so there all equation lines

Answer 12

You're not answering my question, the graph you provided IS that part of the question?

Answer 13

yes

Answer 14

yes it is part of the question @iambatman

Answer 15

Ok, so to find the equation of a line, the "formula" looks as such \[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\]
you're given two points (-4,-2) and (5,1) so you can pick the first point to plug into the formula, try that now and see what you get.

Answer 16

it gives me b and d

Answer 17

Are you sure about b?

Answer 18

sorry i mean A @iambatman

Answer 19
