write an equation in point slope form for the line through the given point with the given slope

(8,3); m=5

A.) y + 3 = 5 (x - 8)
B.) y + 3 = 5x - 8
C.) y - 3 = 5 (x - 8)
D.) y - 3 = 5 (x + 8)

8 answers

for any given point (a,b) and slope m, the equation is
y - b = m(x - a)

which of the choices matches that pattern?
Yes, of course
Memorize that formula
Thank you
(8, 3), (x, y), m = 5.
m = (y-3)/(x-8) = 5.
cross-multiply:
y-3 = 5(x-8).

Zinact is correct 💯
Enter an equation in point-slope form of the line having the given slope that contains the given point.

slope = −12 contains U(2,−2)
