Which equation represents a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 1/2?

y-5= 1/2(x-1)

y-1/2=5(x-1)

y-1=1/2(x-5)

y-1=5[x-1/2]​

Explanation:

Hey there!

The given point is (5,1) and slope is 1/2.

Let's use one point formula for finding the eqaution.


(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Keep all values.


(y - 1) = (1)/(2) (x - 5)

This matches with Option C,

So, your answer is Option C.

Hope it helps...
