Answer 1

`\boxed{\textsf{ The equation of the line is \textbf{ 12y = x +240}.}}`

Explanation:

Given that the slope of a line is 1/12 and it's y intercept is 20 . And we need to find out the equation of the line in simplest form . So we know the slope intercept form of the line as ,

`\sf\implies y = mx + c`

Here m is the slope of the line and c is y intercept . Now put on thr the respective values ,

`\sf\implies y = mx + c \\\\\sf\implies y = (1)/(12)x +20 \\\\\sf\implies12 y = \bigg((1)/(12)x +20\bigg) \\\\\sf\implies 12y =(12)/(12)x +20* 12 \\\\\sf\implies\boxed{\pink{ \sf{12y = x +240}}}`
