• 1/2

Write the equation of a line that passes through the point (-5,-4) and has a slope of 1/5.

• y=1/5x - 3

• y=-3x-2/5

• y= 1/5x - 4

• y= 1/5x + 3

Find the equation of the line that passes through the points:
(-2, 4) and (1, 10)

• y = 2x - 1

• y = -2x + 1

• y = 2x

• y = -2x

Charlie rented a moving truck. He paid a daily fee plus a per-mile fee to rent the truck. The equation below represents the daily amount Charlie paid for the truck if he drives it x miles.
y=0.5x+10
What does the slope of the graph of this equation represent?

• The daily fee for the moving truck

• The per-mile fee for the moving truck

• How much Charlie paid for the truck

• The number of miles he drove

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope.
(4, -7); m = -1/4

• y +7 = -1/4(x - 4)

• y - 4 = -1/4(x + 7)

• y+ 7 = 4(x - 4)

• y - 7 = -1/4(x - 4)

What is the slope in the following equation?
y-1 = 4(x+2)

• 2

• -1

• 4

• -2

Write the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
 (-2, -1); m= -3

• y + 1 = -3(x - 2)

• y + 1 = -3(x + 2)

• y - 1 = 3(x - 1)

• y + 2 = -3(x + 1)

For the equation
y + 1 = -3(x - 5),
