Question

The slope of the line below is 1 .write the point slope equation for the line using the coordinates of the labeled point. (5,7)​

Answer 1

y - 7 = 1 (x-5)

Explanation:

The point slope equation of a line is expressed as;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point on the line

Given the following

m = 1

(x0, y0) = (5, 7)

Substitute into the formula

y - 7 = 1 (x - 5)

y - 7 = x -5

y = x - 5 + 7

y = x + 2

Hence the point slope equation of the line is y - 7 = 1 (x-5)
