Question

Which is the point-slope form of an equation for the line that passes through
(2,-5) with slope -3 ?

Answer 1

Answer:

y+5=-3(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1) is point-slope form

-5 is the y coordinate, so we replace y1 with it. 2 is the x coordinate, so we replace x1 with it. The slope is -3, so we replace m with it.

That would make the equation y+5=-3(x-2).
