Answer:
○ [tex]5x + y = -7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for forming the equation of a line given a point and a slope is:
[tex]\boxed{y- y_1 = m(x - x_1)}[/tex],
where:
m = slope (-5)
[tex]y_1[/tex] = y-coordinate of point (-2)
[tex]x_1[/tex] = x-coordinate of point (-1).
Substituting these values into the formula:
[tex]y - (-2) = -5(x - (-1))[/tex]
⇒ [tex]y + 2 = -5(x + 1)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]y + 2 = -5x -5[/tex] [expanding the brackets]
⇒ [tex]y = -5x -5 - 2[/tex] [subtracting 2 from both sides]
⇒ [tex]y = -5x - 7[/tex]
⇒ [tex]5x + y = -7[/tex] [adding [tex]5x[/tex] to both sides]
This means that the second option is correct.
