Question

Write in point-slope form an equation of the line that passes through the point (2, 6) with slope 9.

Answer 1

`y-6=9(x-2)`

Explanation:

An equation in point-slope form is in the form
`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`, where
`x_1` and
`y_1` are values of a point on the line, and
`m` is the slope of the line. Simply substitute 6 for
`y_1`, 2 for
`x_1`, and 9 for
`m` to get
`y-6=9(x-2)`
