HELP PLEASE:

What is the point-slope form of the line with slope 25 that passes through the point (−4, −7)?
y−7=2/5(x−4)
y+7=2/5(x+4)
y+4=2/5(x+7) ​
y−4=2/5(x−7)

Answer:

y + 7 = 2/5 (x + 4)

Explanation:

(I hope 25 is 2/5)

The formula is y - y1 = m (x - x1), so you put the variables in to y1 and x1 plus add the slope in as m, and there you are! Point slope form. (you also have to flip the signs when putting them in, causing -4 and -7 to become 4 and 7)

Hope this helps!
