Question

Which of the following is the point and slope of the equation y - 9 = 3/2(x - 1)?

a.(-1, -9), 3/2


b.(-9, -1), 3/2


c.(1, 9), 3/2


d.(9, 1), 3/2

Answer 1

The answer is letter C

Answer 2

Its option c

Explanation:

The equation is written in point-slope form:-

y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m = slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

So comparing this with the equation in the question:-

The point is (1, 9) and the slope is 3/2
