A line passes through (2, -1) with slope 3.
What is the equation of the line in point-slope form?
A. y - 1 = 3(x + 2)

B. 3(y + 2) = x - 1

C. y - 2 = ( 1/3 x + 1)

D y + 1 = 3(x - 2)

Answer :

A. y - 1 = 3x + 6
Add 1
y = 3x + 7

B. 3y + 6 = x - 1
Subtract 6, then divide by 3
3y = x - 7
y = 1/3x - 7/3

C. y - 2 = 1/3x + 1
Add 2
y = 1/3x + 3

D. y + 1 = 3x - 6
Subtract 1
y = 3x - 7

When put on a graph, D passes through (2, -1)

Answer is D.
