Question

Find the equation of a line, in slope intercept form, that has a slope of 3 and passes through the point of (-4, 2).

Answer 1

y=3x+14

Explanation:

First find the point using slope point form.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Put y value in for y₁, x value in for x₁ and slope in for m.

y-2=3(x+4)

Simplify

y-2=3x+12

Solve for y to get slope intercept form Y=mx+b

y=3x+14
