Choose a linear function for the line represented by the point-slope equation y – 5 = 3(x – 2). f(x) = 3x + 1 f(x) = 3x – 1 f(x) = 8x + 10 f(x) = 8x – 10

f(x) = 3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 5 = 3(x - 2); now solve for y;

y = 3(x - 2) + 5; now distribute the 3 and add like terms;

y = 3x - 6 + 5

y = 3x -1 ; replace y with f(x);

f(x) = 3x - 1

 The correct option is (B)

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to choose a linear function for the following line represented by the point-slope form of the equation :

Let us consider that  y = f(x). Then, all the terms containing x and the constant terms must be bought on the right-hand side.

From equation (i), we have

Thus, the correct linear function is

Option (B) is CORRECT.
