Select the equation of the line that passes through the point (–2, 1) and has slope 3 in point-slope form.

(x – 2) = 3(y + 1)


(y + 1) = 3(x – 2)


(y – 1) = 3(x + 2)


(x + 2) = 3(y – 1)

SOLVING


\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{A. What is Asked}}

Select the equation that passes through (-2,1) and has slope 3


\Large\maltese\underline{\textsf{B. This problem has been solved!}}

Formula used, here
\bf{y-y1=m(x-x1)}


\bf{y-1=3(x-(-2)} | put in the values, then, simplify


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


\cline{1-2}


\bf{Result:}


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


\LARGE\boxed{\bf{aesthetic \\ot1\theta l}}
