Question

What is an equation of the line, in point slope for, that passes though the given point and has the given slope? point:(7,3);slope:4/7

Answer 1

The equation of this line is y - 3 = 4/7(x - 7)

Explanation:

To find this, start with the base form of point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Now put the slope in for m and the two coordinates in for (x1, y1).

y - 3 = 4/7(x - 7)
