Question

What is the point-slope form of a line with slope 4/5 that contains the point (-2, 1)?

A. y - 1 = 4/5(x + 2)
B. y + 1 = 4/5(x - 2)
C. y - 1 = 4/5(x - 2)
D. y + 1 = 4/5(x + 2)

Answer 1

Hi! Let me help you! :)

• We are given the slope of the line and a point that it passes through.
• We can use the Point-Slope formula:
• y-y1=m(x-x1)
• y-1=4/5(x-(-2)
• y-1=4/5(x+2)

Answer:

y-1=4/5(x+2)
