Answer 1

Answer:

A. y - 3 = -(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for point-slope form is:

$y-y_{1} = m(x-x_{1})$, where 'm' is the slope and $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is a point on the line

Using the given graph, you can see that the line is downhill, indicating a negative slope.  Starting at the y-intercept of -2 and going down two and over two to the point (2, -4) tells us the overall slope is '-1'.  You can also see that there is a point at (-5, 3) on the graph.  Using the slope (-1) and the point (-5, 3):

y - 3 = -1(x + 5)
