Question

Please help me out here ASAP. Thanks!

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (−3, −1) with a slope of 4.

A. y − 1 = 4(x − 3)

B. y + 1 = 4(x + 3)

C. y − 3 = 4(x + 1)

D. y + 3 = 4(x − 1)

Answer 1

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - (-1) = 4[x - (-3)]
y + 1 = 4(x + 3)
y + 1 = 4(x) + 4(3)
y + 1 = 4x + 12
- 1 - 1
y = 4x + 11

The answer is B.
