Question

Which is the equation of a line that passes through the point (3,-4) and has a slope of 2.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 2x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = 6 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 6 = - 10

y = 2x - 10 ← equation of line
