Question

Write a point-slope foem an equation of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slopes (2,-2); m = -5?

a. y -2 = -5(x -2)
b. y+2 = -5(x +2)
c. y -2= -5(x+2)
d. y +2= -5(x -2)​

Answer 1

y+2 = -5(x-2)

Explanation:

The point slope form of a line is

y- y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y - -2 = -5(x-2)

y+2 = -5(x-2)
