Question

Enter the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.Slope is 7, and (5,3) is on the line.

Answer 1

We will replace those values in:

`y-y_1=m(x-x_1)`

That is:

`y-3=7(x-5)`

Then, we solve for y:

`\Rightarrow y-3=7x-35\Rightarrow y=7x-32`

From this, we have that the line that passes by the point (5, 3) and has a slope (m) of 7 is:

`y=7x-32`
