Question

Which equation is the point - slope form of the line with the slope of 3 through the point (5, 6)?

O y + 6 = 3(x + 5)
O y + 6 = 3(x + 5)
Oy - 6 = 3x - 5)
Oy - 5 = 3(x-6)

Answer 1

The correct equation in point-slope form is y - 6 = 3(x - 5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a linear equation is given by y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope of the line.

In this case, the slope is 3 and the point is (5, 6). Using this information, we can plug these values into the equation to find the point-slope form:

y - 6 = 3(x - 5)

Therefore, the correct equation in point-slope form is y - 6 = 3(x - 5).
