Question

Which best describes how to find an equation of the line shown?

A. The slope m is rise over run, so y over x =m. Solve for Y to get y=mx.

B. The slope m is run over rise, so x over y=m. Solve for x=ym.

C. The slope m is run over rise, so x over y=m. Solve for y to get y= x over m.

D. The slope m is rise over run, so x over y=m. Solve for x to get x=ym.

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

m (slope) = rise = y = y₁ - y₁

run x x₁ - x₁

to get y = mx

therefore, the answer to the question is :

A. The slope m is rise over run, so y over x =m.

Solve for y to get y=mx.
