Question

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through point (-2,-13) is y=5x-3. What is the point-slope form of the equation for this line?

Answer 1

y + 13 = 5(x + 2)

Explanation:

Point - slope form of equation:

`\sf \boxed{\bf y - y_1=m(x-x_1)}`

Slope intercept of the line : y =5x - 3

Comparing with y = mx +b , m =slope = 5

m = 5 and Point (-2 ,-13)

y - [-13] = 5(x - [-2])

y + 13 = 5(x + 2)
