Question

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through point (–2, –13) is y = 5x – 3. What is the point-slope form of the equation for this line?

Answer 1

y + 13 = 5(x + 2)

Explanation:

the point is (-2 , -13)

Point slope form is: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y1= -13

x1= -2

y - -13 = 5 (x - -2)

y +13 = 5(x+2)
