Question

Which equation in standard form has a graph that passes through the point (5,-2) and has a slope of 7/2

A:7x - 2y=35
B:7x - 2y=39
C:7x - 2y=-31
d:7x - 2y=-24

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Since it's MCQ and it's LHS is all 7x - 2y, you can simply sub in (5, -2) into each option and see which one has its LHS = RHS.

7(5) - 2(-2) = 35 + 4 = 39

Hence, option B is the answer.
