Question

I don't understand how to solve. The question/task is to use this info to make a linear equation using the following equation format: y=mx+b

Answer 1

y=1/2x+5

Explanation:

m is the slope so m is 1/2 and b is y-intercept and since the line passes through (2,6) and the line has a slope that means the y-intercept is (0,5).

Answer 2

Explanation:

So in y=mx+b form

m is slope

b is y intercept

y=1/2x+b

solve for the y intercept

and

Ur done

EDIT:

m is the slope

so m is 1/2

b is y-intercept

and since the line passes through (2,6) and the line has a slope of 1/2 that means the y-intercept is (0,5).

replace in equation.

y=1/2x+5
