The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through point (–2, –13) is y = 5x – 3. What is the point-slope form of the equation for this line?

y – 13 = 5(x – 2)
y + 13 = 5(x + 2)
y – 2 = 5(x – 13)
y + 2 = 5(x + 13)

The point-slope form in general is
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

With the coordinate (-2,-13) being
(x_1,y_1), and the slope m, is 5, from y = 5x – 3,


y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y-(-13)=5(x-(-2))

y+13=5(x+2)
