Write an equation in point-slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope.

(–3, –7); m = -6/5


A. y – 7 = -6/5 (x-3)

B. y + 7 = -6/5 (x+3)

C. y + 3 = -6/5 (x+7)

D. y – 7 = -6/5 (x+3)

Answer :

Answer:

B. y + 7 = -6/5 (x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the given slope and point to substitute into the point-slope formula  y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 ) .

Slope-intercept form:  y = − 6 /5 x − 53 /5

Point-slope form:  y + 7 = − 6 /5 ⋅ ( x + 3 )
