A line has a slope of -5 and passes through (1,-1).which is the equation of the line in point - slope form?

The answer to the question is C) y + 1 = -5(x - 1) ;

the equation of a line which has the slope m and passes through the point A(x1,y1) has the formula: y-y1=m(x-x1) in your case m= -5 ; A(x1;y1)=(1;-1) y-(-1)= -5(x-1) y+1= -5(x-1) answer is c

The equation of the line in point-slope form is y + 1 = − 5 ( x − 1 ) . This is derived using the point-slope formula with a slope of -5 and the point (1, -1).
