Complete question :

Select the two statements that are true about the equation y−10=60(x−40)

Answer:

m = 60

One point on the line is (40, 10)

Explanation:

Given the equation :

y−10=60(x−40)

Comparing the equation with the point slope equation formula :

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where, x1 and y1 are points on the line

m = Slope

From here, we can deduce that:

y1 = 10 ; x1 = 40 and m = 60

(x1, y1) = (40, 10)

m = slope = 40
