Question

The slope intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through point (-2, -13) is y = 5x - 3. What is the point slope form of the equation for this line?
A. y - 13 = 5(x - 2)

B. y + 13 = 5(x + 2)

C. y - 2 = 5(x - 13)

D. y + 2 = 5(x + 13)

Answer 1

Answer:

B. y+13=5(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

I personally do y=_+_(x-_) when solving these equations

Plug in -2 the x coordinate for (x- (-2) to be (x+3)

Plug in -13 for the y intercept.

5 from 5x is the slope.

Thus y=-13+5(x+3)

Then just move 13 to the other side
