Question

A line has a slope of 5. It passes through points (1,4) and (6,y). What is the value of y?

Answer 1

Answer: 5=

Explanation:

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

since m=5 then

5=y-4/6-1

5=y-4/5

1=y-4

5=

Answer 2

Answer: y=29

Explanation:

Based on the formula: slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

5=
`(y-4)/(6-1)`

5= y-4 / 5

5 x 5 =25

y-4=25

y=29
