Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (−5, 1) with a slope of 3/2
a: y − 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) b: y + 1 =3/2 (x − 5) c: y + 5 = 3/2 (x − 1) d: y − 1 = 3/2 (x + 5)

D because this is what the point slope equation looks like. y-y subscript 1 =slope(x-x subscript 1).

1. isolate the variable, in this case, d. subtract 35.5 on both sides of the equation.2. 52 subtracted by 35.5 is 16.53. therefore your answer would be d= 16.5this is the basics of pre algebra, isolating variable through adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, if you have any other questions to ask just comment!
