Aline passes through the point (-1,3) and has a slope of -2. what is the equation of the lind in slope intercept form? a: y=2x+5b: y=-2x+5c: y=2x+1d: y=-2x+1 explain your work!

Hello,

The answer to this problem is D

Now to find the answer we first have to know the formula for slope intercept.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

So now that we know the formula we have to solve;

y-3=-2(x-(-1))

y-3=-2(x+1)

Now we add +3 to get the 3 on the other side.

y-3=-2x-2

+3     +3

Y=-2x+1

So the answer is D, Have a great day!
