Question

Question 4. Use the given information to write a linear equation in point-slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1).

slope m= 3, point:(5,10)​

Answer 1

y = 3 (x - 7)

But it can be written as

(y - 0) = 3 (x - 7)

comparing this equation with

we get

Therefore, Harold used the point (7, 0)

Explanation:

Answer 2

The linear equation in point-slope form is

y-10 = 3(x-5)

Explanation:

Given

• slope = m = 3

• point (5, 10)

We know that the point-slope form of the line equation is

`y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)`

where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is the point

substituting the values m = 3 and the point (5, 10)

y-10 = 3(x-5)

Thus, the linear equation in point-slope form is

• y-10 = 3(x-5)
