Question

11. What for is the following line in? y - 7 =-2 (x + 6) A. standard form. B. slope intercept form. C. point-slope form.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. point-slope form.​

Explanation:

To answer the question, let us go through each of the answer choices one by one.

A. standard form.

The standard form for a linear equation is

$Ax+By=C$

which is not the form our equation is in; therefore, this is not a correct choice.

B. slope-intercept form.

The slope-intercept form of an equation is

$y=mx+b$

which is not the form our equation is in; therefore, this is not a correct choice.

C. point-slope form.​

The point-slope form of a linear equation is

$y-y_0=m(x-x_0)$

and our equation is

$y-7=-2(x+6)$
