Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (2, 4) and has a slope of 3.

Answer
y - 4 = 3(x - 2)
y + 2 = 3(x + 4)
y + 4 = 3(x + 2)
y - 2 = 3(x - 4)
...?

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. We use the slope point form in order to determine the correct equation. It has the form:

y-y1 = m(x - x1)

y-4 = 3(x - 2)

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
