Question

Write the equation of the line that passes

through the point (-6, 1) and has a slope
of 1/2

Answer 1

y = x + 2

2

i think this is helpful

Explanation:

equation= y - 1 = 1

x - -6 2

then you close multiplication

= 2(y -1)= 1(x - -6)

2y - 2 = x - -6

you make Y as a subject

2y = x- -6 + 2

2y = x + 4

then you divide by 2 on both sides

2y = x + 4

2 2 2

y = x + 2
