Question

A line passes through the point (2,7) and has a slope of 5/2 Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

Answer 1

y = (5/2)x + 2

Explanation:

(2, 7)

(x₁, y₁)

m = (5/2)

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 7 = (5/2)(x - 2)

y - 7 = (5/2)x - 5

+7 +7

------------------------

y = (5/2)x + 2

I hope this helps!
