Question

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (-2, -1) and has a slope of 5 ? A) y - 1 = 5(x - 2). B) y + 1 = 5(x + 2). C) y + 2 = 5(x + 1). D) y - 2 = 5(x - 1)

Answer 1

Using the slope and 1 point format:   (y- y₁) = m(x - x₁)  

where m = slope = 5, and point is (x₁, y₁). In this case point (x₁, y₁) = (-2, -1)

x₁ = -2,  y₁ = -1

Using: (y- y₁) = m(x - x₁)

y - -1 = 5(x - -2)

y + 1 = 5(x + 2). 

We can go further but since our options are in that format above, we stop there.

So answer is option B.
