Answer:

A. y = -8x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

You will notice that when x increases from 2 to 5, y decreases from -21 to a number that is more negative. Thus only the first two answer choices are possibilities, since the others have a positive coefficient for x.

Trying the first given point in the first answer choice, we see that it works:

-21 = -8·2 -5

so, that is the equation we're looking for.

y = -8x -5

Write the equation of the line shown in point slope form (1,2) (3,6)
Kipish [7]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (1, 2) and (3, 6). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{6-2}{3-1}=\dfrac{4}{2}=2\\\\\boxed{y-2=2(x-1)}
