Write the equation of the line that passes through (−1, 5) and has a slope of 3 in point-slope form. (2 points)


x + 1 = 3(y − 5)

x − 5 = 3(y + 1)

y − 5 = 3(x + 1)

y + 1 = 3(x − 5)

Verified Answer :

The point-slope form: \(y-y_0=m(x-x_0)\)

m = 3; (-1; 5) \(\to x_0=-1;\ y_0=5\)

subtitute

y - 5 = 3(x - (-1))

y - 5 = 3(x + 1)

Correct answer: y - 5 = 3(x + 1)
