Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (4, –5) with slope 2.
A. y−4=−2(x+5)
B. y+5=2(x−4)
C. y−4=2(x+5)
D. y+5=−2(x−4)

Answer :

Answer:

The correct choice is option B. y + 5 = 2(x−4)

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = 2

y = mx + b

-5 = 2(4) + b

-5 = 8 + b

-8    -8

------------------

-13 = b

y = 2x - 13, in other words --> y + 5 = 2(x−4)

So, y + 5 = 2(x − 4) is the equation of the line that passes through (4, -5).
