Question

Which is the point-slope form of an equation for the line that passes through (0, –5) with slope 2?

Question 3 options:

a)

y = 2x – 5


b)

y – 5 = x – 2


c)

y + 5 = 2x


d)

y = 2(x + 5)

Answer 1

Answer:

c) y + 5 = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Insert the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT signs. Remember, in the Point-Slope Formula, y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE term of what they really are.
