Answer:

−2x+y=−11

Explanation:

The given point only satisfies one of the offered equations:

−2x+y=−11

_____

Additional comment

The term "standard form" applied to linear equations means "ax+by=c" where the coefficients are mutually prime integers and the leading coefficient is positive. None of the offered choices is the standard form equation of this line. It would rightly be ...

2x -y = 11
