Question

Which equation describes the same line as y – 5 = –2(x + 4)?

A y= -2x+3.

B. y= -2x-8

C. y= -2x-2

D. y= -2x+9

Answer 1

`y=-2x-3`

Explanation:

We have been given an equation in point-slope form and we are asked to find the equation of same line.

`y-5=-2(x+4)`

Upon using distributive property
`a(b+c)=a*b+a*c` we will get,

`y-5=-2x-8`

Let us add 5 to both sides of our equation.

`y-5+5=-2x-8+5`

`y=-2x-3`

Therefore, the equation
`y=-2x-3` represents the same line as our given equation.

Answer 2

y – 5 = –2(x + 4)
y - 5 = -2x - 8
y = -2x - 8 + 5
y = -2x - 3

answer
y = -2x - 3
