Question

Which of the following are point slope equations of the line going through (-3, -5) and (2, 4). Help is appreciated!​

Answer 1

Answer:

A and F

Step-by-step explanation:

first figure out the slope.

4-(-5)/2-(-3)= 9/5

slope: 9/5

y-y1=m(x-x1)

you substitute either coordinate for the second variables. we automatically take out any slopes that have a negative because the slope is positive.

C, D, E all have negative slopes so it is wrong.

B does not work because a negative times a negative is a positive. the equation shows it to be negative so it is wrong.

A & F fit the solution.
