The equation of the line with m = 5 that goes through (-1, -2) is:
y = 5x - 3
y = 5x + 3
y = 7x + 5

Answer 1

y = 5x+3

Explanation:

a general line is represented by the equation:

y = mx + n

a line with m=5, that goes through (-1,-2), should satisfy the equation:

-2 = 5×(-1) + n

this is because any point on the line, satisfies it's equation.

from this we get n = 3, hence our answer
