it says that is not correct
Point-Slope Equation of a Line:
y − y1 = m ( x − x1 )
m = slope
( x 1 , y 1 ) = coordinates of one point on the line
In this case m = 3 , x1 = - 5 , y1 = 1
y − y1 = m ( x − x1 )
y − 1 = 3 [ x − ( - 5 ) ]
y − 1 = 3 ( x + 5 )
y − y1 = m ( x − x1 )
m = slope
( x 1 , y 1 ) = coordinates of one point on the line
In this case m = 3 , x1 = - 5 , y1 = 1
y − y1 = m ( x − x1 )
y − 1 = 3 [ x − ( - 5 ) ]
y − 1 = 3 ( x + 5 )
im still confused..
What is not clear here?
the answer, Bosnian.
In google type "Point slope form"
When you see list of results go on mathisfun or some other site.

Answer is:
y − 1 = 3 ( x + 5 )
y − 1 = 3 ( x + 5 )
no it isnt. i tried that lmfao
y − 1 = 3 ( x + 5 )
is point-slope form of line passes through the point ( - 5, 1 ) and have slope m = 3 , and that is answer.
Goodbye.

Goodbye.
(-5, 1), m = 3.
(-5, 1), (x, y).
(y - 1)/(x-(-5)) = 3.
(y-1)/(x+5) = 3,
Cross-multiply:
y-1 = 3(x+5). Same as Bosnian.
