Question

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (2, 0)​ with slope 1.

Answer 1

The point-slope form of a linear equation is:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m is the slope of the line and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Using the given point (2, 0) and slope 1, we can substitute into the equation:

y - 0 = 1(x - 2)

Simplifying, we get:

y = x - 2

So the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (2, 0) with slope 1 is y = x - 2.
