Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through (1, 3) and has a slope of 2 in point-slope form

Answer 1

y-3=2(x-1)

Explanation:

Point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1)

Now we just need to plug in what you have into this equation.

y-3=2(x-1) and this is the point slope form for this line.

Answer 2

y-3= 2(x-1)

Explanation:

1. The equation of a line in point slope form is y-y1= m(x-x1)

2. m=slope and (x1,y1) is the point the line passes through

3. The point the line passes through is (1,3)

4, The slope is 2

5. Therefore the answer is y-3=2(x-1)
