If a line has a slope of 2 and contains the point (-2, 1), what is its equation in
point-slope form?

A. y +2=-2(x-1)
B. y-2 =-2(x-1)
C. y-1=2(x-2)
D. y- 1 = 2(x+ 2)

Answer :

Answer:

D

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 = 2 and (a, b ) = (- 2, 1 ) , then

y - 1 = 2(x - (- 2)) , that is

y - 1 = 2(x + 2)
