Question

Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y + 1 = –3(x – 5)?

Answer 1

Y+1= -3(x+5) in order to solve first write down the function, then find the current of the function.

Y+1=-3x-15 then this is the current of the function. Multiply the -3 times the X and the 5.

Y=-3x-14 finally this is the slope. To get the slope I added the 1 to the -15

Final answer= Y=3x+14

Answer 2

y + 1 = -3(x - 5)
y + 1 = -3x + 15
y = -3x + 15 - 1
y = -3x + 14 <== or f(x) = -3x + 14
