Question

The equation of the line passing through (2, 3) with a slope of 5 is y = [] x - []

what are the answers to []​

Answer 1

y = 5x - 7

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 5, then

y = 5x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (2, 3) into the partial equation

3 = 10 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 10 = - 7

y = 5x - 7 ← equation of line
