Question

What is the point slope form of the line with slope 2/5 that passes through the point (-4,-7) ?

A. y-4=2/5(x-7)
B. y-7=2/5 (x-4)
C. y+4=2/5(x+4)
D. y+4=2/5 (x+7)

Answer 1

The point slope form of the line is:

D. y+4=2/5(x+7)

Answer 2

where slpe=m and a point (x1,y1)
the equaton is
y-y1=m(x-x1)

slope=2/5
point is (-4,-7)
remember x-(-y)=x+y

-4=x1
-7=y1
y-(-7)=2/5(x-(-4))
y+7=2/5(x+4)
none of the options are the answer

A. is pass through point (7,4)
B is pass through point (4,7)
C is pass through point (-4,-4)
D is pass through point (-7,-4)

I would guess you made a typo and you meant to write y+7=2/5(x+4) for C

I would guess C
