Question

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (7, −2) and has a slope of −3.

a.y − 2 = −3(x + 7)
b. y + 7 = −3(x − 2)
c. y + 2 = −3(x − 7)
d. y − 7 = −3(x + 2)

Answer 1

(x1,y1) = (7,-2)
m = -3

General equation of line
y - y1 = m (x -x1)
y - (-2) = m (x - 7)
y + 2 = -3(x - 7)

The answer is c
