Select the three equations that pass through the points (–4, –16) and (5, 2):

The slope through (–4, –16) and (5, 2) is (2 – (–16)) / (5 – (–4)) = 18 / 9 = 2. Using (5, 2), the line is y – 2 = 2(x – 5), which simplifies to y = 2x – 8. Thus B, C, and D are equivalent equations for the line; A does not simplify to this line.
