2.1 Equations of Lines

Write the equation of the line with slope 4 through the point (-2, 5).

• y = 4x - 13
• y = 4x + 13
• y = 4x - 3
• y = 4x + 3

Write the equation of the line with slope -2 through the point (7, -1).

• y = -2x + 15
• y = -2x -15
• y = -2x + 13
• y = -2x - 13

Write the equation of the line with slope 3/5 through the point (20, 6).

• y = 3/5x - 6
• y = 3/5x +18
• y = 3/5x - 18
• y = 3/5x +6

Write the equation of the line through the points (-6, -19) and (2, 5).

• y = -7/2x + 12
• y = 3x + 11
• y = -7/2x - 40
• y = 3x - 1

Write the equation of the line through the points (4, 5) and (12, 9).

• y = 2x - 3
• y = 1/2x + 3
• y = 1/2x +7
• y = 2x - 15

What is the equation of this line?

• x=5
• y=5
• y=5x
• x=-5

Find the slope of the line that passes through:

• 2/11
• 13/2
• 3/10
• 11/2

A music club membership costs $15 to start and $8 per cd. Write an equation.

• C = 15 + 8
• C = 15x +8
• C = 8x + 15
• none of these

Which of the following is the slope-intercept form?

• m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

• y = mx + b

• y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

• ax + by = c

Put this into standard form:

y = 3x + 2

• y + 3x = 2

• 3x + y = 2

• 3x - y = - 2

• 3x - 2y = 2
