Question

A line has a slope of 5 and passes through the point

(2, 0) . What
isitsequationin
slope -intercept
form?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The equation is mx+b=y.

M=slope (in this case 5)

x=x coordinates

b=y intercept

y=y coordinates

For the x and y coordinates, I'll use (2,0).

5(2)+_=0

10+_=0.

In this case, we only have one awnser, -10. Since 10+(-10) are the only ways to equal 0.

Hope this helps,
