Question

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (7, −2) and has a slope of −3.

Answer 1

Hello,

y+2=-3*(x-7)

Answer C

Answer 2

Answer:

Therefore, Option 3rd is correct that is $y+2=-3(x-7)$ which is required equation of a line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a point through which line is passing that is (7,-2) and slope is also given which is -3

We have a general equation of line which is

$(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)$

Here,$m=-3$

And  $y_1=-2,x_1=7$ on substituting the values in the given formula for equation of a line we will get

$y-(-2)=-3(x-7)$

$\Rightarrow y+2=-3(x-7)$

Therefore, Option 3rd is correct that is $y+2=-3(x-7)$ which is required equation of a line.
