Answer:

y-5=2(x-4)

Explanation:

Considering the slope intercept form is y=2x+9 and the point is (4,5), you would just need to plug in all the necessary numbers in point-slope form.

Point-slope form:

y-y1=m(x-x1) → y-5=2(x-4)

m represents the slope, which is 2 in this situation.

y1 represents the y coordinate, which is 5 in this situation.

x1 represents the x coordinate, which is 4 in this situation.
