Which of the following equations has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3)?
ryzh [129]

Option C (Same as Option D)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Option C and D are the same, so I'll assume you made a mistake when writing this question. However, let's figure out which of the following equations has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3):

A. y = -2x + 6

B. y - 3 = -2(x + 2)

C. y = -2x + 7

<em />

<em>All these equations have a slope of -2.</em>

FROM OPTION A:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3=-2(2)+6 \\ \\ 3=-4+6 \\ \\ 3=2 \ False!

Since 3\neq 2 then the line doesn't pass through the point (2, 3)

FROM OPTION B:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3-3=-2((2)+2) \\ \\ 0=-2(4) \\ \\ 0=-8 \ False!

Since 0\neq -8 then the line doesn't pass through the point (2, 3)

FROM OPTION C:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3=-2(2)+7 \\ \\ 3=-4+7 \\ \\ 3=3 \ True!

Since 3\neq 3 then the line passes through the point (2, 3)

<em>Finally, the equation that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3) is Option C (Same as Option D)</em>
