Option C
The standard form of the equation for y + 7 = -2/5(x - 10) is 2x + 5y = -15.
<u>Solution:</u>
Need to determine standard form of equation of line passing through points (-5, -1) and (10, -7) and having slope form as
Standard form of equation of line is such that terms having variables are on left hand side and constant terms on right hand side.
So let’s simplify given slope form.
On opening the brackets we get
=> 5(y + 7) = -2x +20
=> 5y + 2x = 20 – 35
=> 2x +5y = -15
Hence the standard form is 2x + 5y = -15.
