Question

I need to explain this how do i do that?????

Answer 1

`\tt Step-by-step~explanation:`

To solve, we need to write this in slope-intercept form.

`\tt Step~1:`

Slope: 3

Point: (1,2)

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b (y = y value, m = slope, x = x value, b = y-intercept)

y = 2, m = 3, x = 2, b = ?

We have to solve for b. To do so, we plug in all these values into our formula. Move all values not equal to b to the left of the equation.

`\tt 2 = 3(1)+b\\2=3+b\\2-3=3-3+b\\-1=b`

`\tt Step~2:`

Now that we know what b is, we can plug it into our equation. Plug in only the value of the slope and the y intercept.

y = mx + b

y = 3x - 1

`\large\boxed{\tt Our~final~answer:~y=3x-1}`
