Question

What equation represents a line in point slope form that has a slope of 5 and passes the point 1,6

Answer 1

y = 5x+1

Explanation:

y= mx+c --- The formula for a straight line

Substituting the slope:

y = 5x+c

Substituting x and y from the point:

6 = 5 + c

c = 6 - 5

c = 1

Hence,

y = 5x + 1
