1.   Write the point–slope form of an equation for the line passing through
(2, –5) with slope
    A. B.
    C. D.
    Hint

  2.   State the slope and the coordinates of a point on the graph of the equation
y – 6 = –3(x + 1).
    A. m = –3; (–1, 6) B. m = ; (-1, 6)
    C. m = –3; (1, –6) D. m = –3; (6, –1)
    Hint

  3.   A line passes through the origin of a coordinate system. The slope of the line is 0. What is the equation of this line?
    A. y = 0 B. y = x
    C. x = 0 D. y = –x
    Hint

  4.   Write the point-slope form of an equation of the line in the graph.
Use (-2, 0) for (x1, y1).
   
    A. y – 2 = x B. y = (x + 2)
    C. y = (x – 2) D. y + 2 = x
    Hint

  5.   The line in the graph represents Pete's increasing math grade. Find the equation of the line in point-slope form. Use (4, 64) for (x1, y1).
   
    A. y + 64 = 2(xv + 4)
    B. y – 64 = 2(x – 4)
    C. y + 4 = 2(x + 64)
    D. y – 4 = 2(x – 64)
    Hint
