Question

What point lies on the line described by the equation below? Y+3=2 (x-1

Answer 1

`\boxed{(1, -3)}`

Explanation:

`y+3=2 (x-1)`

Put equation in slope-intercept form.

`y=mx+b`

`y=2(x-1)-3`

`y=2x-2-3`

`y=2x-5`

Let x = 1

`y=2(1)-5`

`y=2-5`

`y=-3`

The point (1, -3) lies on the line.
