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

B or y + 13 = 5(x + 2)

Explanation:

Answer 2

y+13 = 5(x+2)

Explanation:

y = 5x-3

The slope is 5 since it is in the form y= mx +b where m is the slope

The point slope form of the equation of a line is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is the point

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

y+13 = 5(x+2)
