Question

Which equation represents a line that passes through (2,-1/2) and has a slope of 3?
O y-2 = 3(x +1/2)
O y-3 = 2(x + 1/2)
O y+ 1/2= 3(x - 2)
O y+ 1/2= 2(x - 3)

Answer 1

Answer:

option 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = 3 and (a, b) = (2, - $\frac{1}{2}$ ) , thus

y - (- $\frac{1}{2}$ ) = 3(x - 2) , that is

y + $\frac{1}{2}$ = 3(x - 2)
