• y = mx + b

Which of these represents slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

• y - y₁ = m(x-x₁)

• Ax + By = C

• y = mx + b

For the equation
y - 3 = 2(x + 4),
the line has a slope of 2 and contains what point?

• (-4, 3)

• (3, -4)

• (-3, -4)

• (-4, -3)

For the equation
y + 1 = -3(x - 5),
the line contains the point (5, -1) and has a slope of?

• -1

• 1

• -3

• 5

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
 (-2, -1); m= -3

• y + 1 = -3(x - 2)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 2)

• y - 1 = 3(x - 1)

• y + 2 = -3(x + 1)

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y +7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

• y+ 7 = 4(x - 4)

• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

Given y + 6 = 10( x - 9) , what is the point used to write this equation?

• (10, 9)

• (6, -9)

• (-6, 9)

• (9, -6)

What is the slope of the equation y - 2 = -6( x + 6)

• 2

• 6

• -2

• -6

What is the equation of the line in point slope form given a slope of -12 and a point of (-4, -5)?

• y - 5 = -12(x - 4)

• y + 4 = -12(x + 5)

• y + 5 = -12(x + 4)

• y - 12 = -4(x + 5)
