Answer:

2b. y + 2 = −⅔(x + 3)

2a. y - 3 = ⅘(x - 5)

1b. y = -x + 5

1a. y = 5x - 3

Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation:

2.

b. y + 2 = −⅔(x + 3)

a. y - 3 = ⅘(x - 5)

According to the Point-Slope Formula, y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE TERMS OF WHAT THEY REALLY ARE, so be EXTREMELY CAREFUL inserting the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT SIGNS.

__________________________________________________________

1.

b. y = -x + 5

a. y = 5x - 3

Just write out the Slope-Intercept Formula as it is given to you.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
