Sagot :

1.[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]
   [tex]y - 3 = 6(x - 8)[/tex]
   [tex]y - 3 = 6(x) - 6(8)[/tex]
   [tex]y - 3 = 6x - 48[/tex]
   [tex]y = 6x - 45[/tex]
   [tex]The\ answer\ is\ equal\ to\ B.[/tex]

2.[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]
   [tex]y - (-2) = -\frac{1}{2}(x - (-4))[/tex]
   [tex]y + 2 = -\frac{1}{2}(x + 4)[/tex]
   [tex]y + 2 = -\frac{1}{2}(x) - \frac{1}{2}(4)[/tex]
   [tex]y + 2 = -\frac{1}{2}x - 2[/tex]
   [tex]y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 4[/tex]
   [tex]The\ answer\ is\ equal\ to\ C.[/tex]

3.[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]
   [tex]y - (-6) = -0.38(x - 5)[/tex]
   [tex]y + 6 = -0.38(x - 5)[/tex]
   [tex]y + 6 = -0.38(x) + 0.38(5)[/tex]
   [tex]y + 6 = -0.38x + 1.9[/tex]
   [tex]y = -0.38 - 4.1[/tex]
   [tex]The\ answer\ is\ equal\ to\ D.[/tex]
