Question

there is a line that includes the point (1,5) and has a slope of 15. what is its equation in slope-intercept form?​

Answer 1

y = 15x - 10

Explanation:

slope is given: 15

(x, y) is given: (1, 5)

plug values into y = mx + b:

5 = (15)(1) + b

solve for b:

b + 15 = 5

b = -10

rewrite the equation:

y = 15x - 10
