Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = - 5 and (a, b) = (2, - 1), thus
y - (- 1) = - 5(x - 2) , that is
y + 1 = - 5(x - 2) → C
Answer:
Option C is the correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of point slope form of line is :
[tex]y - y1 =m ( x - x1)[/tex]
Where ( x1 , y1 ) is one point on the line and m is the slope.
In the given problem,
The slope of line ( m ) = - 5
One point on the line = ( x1 , y1 ) = ( 2 , -1 )
The point slope form of the line is:
y - ( - 1 ) = - 5 ( x - 2 )
y + 1 = - 5 ( x - 2 )
Hope this helps..
Best regards!!
