Question

Find the equation of the line with Slope = 6 and passing through (7,49). Write your equation in the form y=mx+b

y= ?

Answer 1

Y=6X+7

Explanation:

Starting from the general equation for lines, we know that m=6

the remaining term 'b' can be found evaluating the given point: X=7 Y=49 in the next equation:

Y=mX+b

We have:

49=6*7+b

so 49=42+b

b=49-42=7

Finally : Y=6X+7
