Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (2, 4) and has a slope of 3. (5 points)


y − 4 = 3(x −2)

y − 2 = 3(x −4)

y + 4 = 3(x + 2)

y + 2 = 3(x + 4)

Answer 1

y − 4 = 3(x − 2) is the answer

Explanation:

an equation that passes through (2,4) with a slope of 3 is y=3x-2 , y=3x-2 is the same equation and equivalent to y − 4 = 3(x − 2)

Answer 2

Point-slope form is:
y - y1 = m (x - x1)

So the correct form for that equation would be:
y - 4 = 3 (x - 2)

So the correct equation is the first one.
