Question

Given the point and the slope, write the function in point-slope form:

(2,−5);m=23

Group of answer choices
y−5=23(x−2)
y+5=23(x−2)
y−5=23(x+2)
y+5=23(x+2)

Answer 1

Answer:

2nd answer choice

Step-by-step explanation:

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

y-(-5)=23(x-2)

y+5=23(x-2)

Answer 2

Answer:

  (b)  y+5=23(x−2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form for the equation of a line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . point (h, k), slope m

You have point (2, -5) and m=23, so the equation becomes ...

  y -(-5) = 23(x -2)

  y +5 = 23(x -2) . . . . . . simplify a bit
