Question

PLEASE HELP ME OUT! ITS EASY, IM JUST TIRED!
Explain your answer, thank you!

Answer 1

y = 2/5x -1

Explanation:

We have the slope and a point

Using the point slope form of a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-3 = 2/5(x-10)

Distribute

y-3 =2/5x -4

Add 3 to each side

y-3+3 =2/5x - 4 +3

y = 2/5x -1

Answer 2

Slope = 2/5 and the point is (10,3)

The form of the equation is y = mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept (b) replace y, m and x with the given information:

y = 3 x = 10 and m = 2/5

Now you have 3 = 2/5(10) +b

Solve for b:

3 = 4 + b

Subtract 4 from each side:

b = 3-4

b = -1

Now replace b in the equation to get:

y = 2/5x-1
