Slop -2 , through (5,8)

1 Answer

First since we only know the slope and the point it'll need to be in y=mx+b form, so 2 is the slope so so far we have the slope and now we need the y-intercept, solving for b: b=8-(2)(5). b=-2. The equation of the line that passes through the point (5,8) with a slope of 2 is y=2x-2.

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
