Question

Write the equation of a line in point-slope form and standard form.

through: (4,4), slope = 1/4

Answer 1

4 = 1/4(4) + b

Explanation:

The equation for a slope is y = mx + b

If the coordinates for a graph is ( x, y )

and the

The coordinates for this equation is ( 4, 4 )

This means that x = 4 and y = 4

M = the slope

B = The Y-intercept which is unknown

You do not have to solve for B when it's asking for the standard form. Only solve for B when it asks for the y-intercept.

The slope is 1/4 so, M = 1/4

Therefore, it is 4 = 1/4 ( 4 ) + b

Hope this helps!!
