Question

Which point is located on the line represented by
the equation y + 4 = -5(x -3)?
(1 point)
O (-4, -5)
O (-5, -4)
O (3, -4)
O (-3, 4)

Answer 1

To find a point located on the line represented by the equation, we need to substitute values for x and y that satisfy the equation.

Let's start by simplifying the equation:
y + 4 = -5(x -3)
y + 4 = -5x + 15

Now, let's substitute different values for x and solve for y:

If we substitute x = 0, we get:
y + 4 = -5(0 -3)
y + 4 = -5(-3)
y + 4 = 15
y = 15 - 4
y = 11

Therefore, the point (0, 11) is located on the line represented by the equation y + 4 = -5(x -3).

None of the given answer choices match this point, so it is not listed.
