Question

P(-9,1);m=1 use slope intercept form to write an equation of a line passing through the given point and having the given slope. Express answer in Standord form

Answer 1

Passes through (-9, 1) and has a slope of 1. Put answer into Standard Form :)

Use slope-intercept form to answer this question.

Remember, slope-intercept form is : y=mx+b, where m=slope, b=y-intercept.

Our m=1, our b=1

So, simply plug these into the equation.

y=mx+b → y = (1)x + (1)

Simplify.

y = x + 1 → Slope-intercept form.

However, we want this in standard form.

Standard form : Ax+Bx=C

In Standard Form, "x" and "y" are on the same side, so we must subtract x from both sides.

-x + y = 1 ← Standard Form
