Question

Which is the equation of a line that passes through the point (3.-4

Answer 1

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

A. y = 2x-11

B. y = 2x-10

c. y = 2x-4

D. y=2x-2​

Recall, the slope intercept equation

y= mx+c

Assuming c is held constant in each scenario

Looking at A

m = 2, c = -11

Equation of the line that passes through the point (3.-4)

-4 = 2×3 + c

c =-10

-10 does not correspond to -11 given

Let's try B

m= 2, c = -10

Equation of the line that passes through the point (3.-4)

-4 = 2×3 + c

c = -4-6 = -10

This intercept correspond with the intercept in B which is -10

Let's look at C

m= 2, c = -4

Equation of the line that passes through the point (3.-4)

-4 = 2×3 + c

c = -4-6 = -10

-10 does not correspond to -4 given

Let's try D

m= 2, c = -2

Equation of the line that passes through the point (3.-4)

-4 = 2×3 + c

c = -4-6 = -10

-10 does not correspond to -2 given
