Which of the following is the point and slope of the equation y - 15 = -2(x + 1)?

(-1, 15), -2

(-1, 15), 2

(1, 15), -2

(-1, -15), -2

The first option is the point-slope form for the given point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

As we need to calculate the slope, m and coordinate we use the point-slope form to find m and the coordinate.

The point-slope form is ,

the given equation is .

Step 2:

By comparing both the equations, we determine the values of and m.

, so the y coordinate is 15.

, the x coordinate is; , so the x coordinate is -1.

By comparing, we get m = -2.

So the slope is m = -2 and the coordinates of the point is (-1, 15) which is the first option.

f

step-by-step explanation:

f

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.
