Question

The point-slope form of the equation of a line that passes through points (8, 4) and (0, 2) is y – 4 =1/4 (x – 8). What is the slope-intercept form of the equation for this line

Answer 1

To change the point-slope form to its slope-intercept form, just simplify and make y on one side.

y-4=1/4(x-8)
Distribute:
y-4=1/4x-2
Add 4 to each side:
y=1/4x+2

Hope this helps :)
