Question

A line that includes the point (8, 1) has a slope of 1. What is its equation in slope-intercept

form?

Answer 1

Explanation:

y=mx+c that is the general equation of the line now m is the slope and is given we can get c

by plugging in the given point.

(8,1)

`1 = (1)8 + c \\ 1 = 8 + c \\ c = 1 - 8 \\ c = - 7`

y=x-7 is the equation.
