Question

Write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through (3, 1) and has a y intercept of -2

Answer 1

Explanation:

First of all, use substitution to find slope

(1) = m(3) - 2

3 = m3

m = 1

With both the slope and y int, you can write it in y int form

y = 1x - 2

Convert that to standard form

-x + y = -2
