Which is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope? Point: (5, 9); Slope: 2

• Y- 9 = 2(x- 5) • Y- 5 = 2(x+ 9) • Y+ 9 = 2(x- 5) 0 y- 9 = 2(x+ 5)

(\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{9})~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies 2 ~\hfill \begin{array}c \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{9}=\stackrel{m}{2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{5})
