Respuesta :
y – 3 = –1(x + 5)
y - 3 = -x - 5
y = -x - 5 + 3
y = -x - 2
answer is B. y = –1x – 2
Answer:
Option B is correct.
[tex]y= -1x-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property says that:
[tex]a \cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c[/tex]
Given the equation of line:
[tex]y-3 = -1(x+5)[/tex]
Apply the distributive property we have;
[tex]y-3 = -1x-5[/tex]
Add 3 to both sides we have;
[tex]y-3+3= -1x-5+3[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]y= -1x-2[/tex]
Therefore, an equation describes the same line as y – 3 = –1(x + 5) is, [tex]y= -1x-2[/tex]
