Question

A line with a slope of 2 passes through the point (-8, 2). What is its equation in point-slope form?
A) y - 2 = 2(x - 8)
B) y - 2 = 2(x+8)
C) y+2 = 2(x – 8)
D) y+2 = -2(x+8)

Answer 1

Answer:

B. y - 2 = 2 (x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope formula is:

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - 2 = 2 (x + 8)
