Write the equation of the line that passes through (1, 3) and has a slope of 2 in point-slope form.

A) y – 1 = 2(x – 3)
B) y – 3 = 2(x – 1)
C) x – 1 = 2(y – 3)
D) x – 3 = 2(y – 1)

okay so general point slope form looks like this$$y - y1 = m(x - x1)$$

anonymous · Answer

y1 and x1 are points on the line which you are given

anonymous · Answer

the y and x without a 1 to the right stay as they are
so now just plug in what you konw

anonymous · Answer

so for M would i place 2 since 2 is the slope ?
