Answer 1

Answer: Choice A) y - 10 = 2(x - 3)

============================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

We can rule out choices C and D because this diagonal line has a positive slope (as it moves uphill when moving to the right).

So m = 2 must be the slope.

---------

Recall that

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

represents the point slope form of a linear equation.

The point shown on this graph is (3,10) meaning that x1 = 3 and y1 = 10 pair up together.

So,

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 10 = 2(x - 3)

which points to choice A as the final answer
