Question

.Write the equation of the line with m = 3 going through the point (–2, –5). Put your answer in Slope–Intercept Form.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = 3x +1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$m = 3$

$(x_1,y_1) = (-2,-5)$

Required

The equation

This is calculated as:

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

So, we have:

$y = 3(x - -2) -5$

$y = 3(x +2) -5$

Open bracket

$y = 3x +6 -5$

$y = 3x +1$
