Answer:

The Equation of a line that is passing from the point (5,3) is y = x - 2

Explanation:

The equation of a line that has a slope of one and passes through point (5,3) is as:

From given data,

  • slope = b = 1,
  • x 1= 5,
  • y 1= 3.

So by using the formula, y - y 1 = b ( x - x 1 ) now putting values in this formula,

  1. y - y 1 = b ( x - x 1 )
  2. y - ( 3 ) = 1( x - 5 )

=> y - 3 = x - 5,

=> y = x - 5 + 3,

=> y = x - 2.

The equation of a line that has a slope of one and passes through the point (5,3) is y = x - 2.
