Question

The equation of a line in the point-slope form is shown below. y-9=1/5(x-2)

what is the slope of this line?
A. 2
B. 1/9
C. 5
D. 1/5​

Answer 1

The answer is D because in the equation y= mx+b it’s going to be y=1/5x + 43/5 and m is always going to be the slope

Answer 2

D) 1/5

Explanation:

Point - slope form:

y - y1 = m(x -x1)

y - 9 = 1/5(x - 2)
