Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:y − 5 = 3(x − 1)  Step-by-step explanation:1.Calculate the slope of the line. The equation for the slope of a straight line is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) The line passes through (0, 2) and (1, 5). m = (5 - 2)/[1 - 0] = 3/1 = 3 The slope of the line is 3. 2. Identify the graph A and B are wrong, because the coefficients of x are 13. C is wrong, because the coefficient of x (the slope) is -3. D is correct, because the coefficient of x is +3. The equation that is graphed is y − 5 = 3(x − 1).
