What is the equation, in point-slope form, for a line that goes through (2, -6) and has

a slope of 3/5
A. y - 6 = 3/5 (x + 2)

B. y - 2 = 3/5 (x + 6)

C. y+2 = 3/5 (x – 6)

D. y+6= 3/5 (x - 2)

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form:

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Coordinate given = (2,-6)
Slope = 3/5

Thus:
(y -(-6)) = 3/5(x - 2)
y + 6 = 3/5(x - 2)
