Question

Enter an equation in point-slope form for the line.

Slope is 1 and (−6, −1) is on the line.

The equation of the line in point slope form is:

Answer 1

Answer: y = x + 5

Work:

Given slope - 1
Given coordinates- (-6,-1)

Plug the given info into equation and solve for b:

y=Mx+b
-1 = 1(-6) + b
-1 = -6 + b
5 = b

Now you have the slope and value for b.

y = x + 5
