Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the points. 0,1 and 4,2

Answer 1

`y=(1)/(4)x+1`

Explanation:

the common formula of the required equation is:

`(x-X_A)/(X_B-X_A) =(y-Y_A)/(Y_B-Y_A);`

if to substitute the given coordinates into the folmula above, then the required equation is:

`(x-0)/(4-0) =(y-1)/(2-1);` ⇔ y-1=1/4*x; ⇔
`y=(1)/(4) x+1.`
