Question

Passing through (1,9),slope=2

Answer 1

y = ax + b

Here the slope is 2.

Then, y = 2x + b

The line is passing through (1;9).

We just have to substitute that in the equation.

9 = 2*1+ b
b = 9 - 2
b = 7

That's the intercept.

Eventually, the equation is : y = 2x + 7

Hope this helps !

Answer 2

Passes through (1, 9) with a slope of 2.

Assuming that we want this in slope intercept form, which is y=mx+b (m=slope, b=y-intercept) then we need to find the y-intercept! :)

To find the y-intercept (or b!!) you simply need to plug everything into slope intercept form using our given points.

y = mx + b

Plug everything in.

9 = 2(1) + b

Simplify.

9 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 from both sides.

9 - 2 = b

b = 7

Therefore, our y-intercept is 7! :)

Now that we have both the y-intercept and the slope, we can finally plug this into a new equation, using slope intercept form.

y = mx + b

y = 2x + 7
