Question

15 points!!!! Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope

(8.3); m= 5


a. y+3=5(x-8)
b. y+3=5x-8
c. y-3=5(x-8)
d. y-3=5(x+8)

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = 5 and (a, b) = (8, 3), thus

y - 3 = 5(x - 8) → C
