Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (−5, 1) with a slope of 3/2

A: y − 5 = 3/2 (x + 1)
B: y + 1 =3/2 (x − 5)
C: y + 5 = 3/2 (x − 1)
D: y − 1 = 3/2 (x + 5)

1 answer

for a given point (p,q) and slope m
the equation is

y - q = m(x - p)

Which of the choices matches this pattern for your given data
