Which of the following is an equation of the line that passes through (3, 5) and has a slope of 2?

y + 5 = 2(x 3)
y 5 = 2(x + 3)
y 5 = 3(x 2)
y + 5 = 3(x 2)

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

where m is the slope and (x₁,y₁) is a point that the line passes through.

Plugging in m = 2, and (3,5), we get:

y - 5 = 2(x - 3)

Your final answer is y - 5 = 2(x - 3).
