Question

Write the equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope.

Answer 1

Hey there!!

What is slope-intercept form :

... y = mx + b

( a ) Given :

... ( 2 , -2 ) and slope=1.4

... y = mx + b

... -2 = 2×1.4 + b

... -2 = 2.8 + b

... -4.8 = b

The slope-intercept form :

... y = 1.4x - 4.8

( b ) Given :

... ( -1 , 4 ) and slope = -3.

y = mx + b

... 4 = -3×-1 + b

... 4 = 3 + b

... 1 = b

The slope-intercept form :

... y = -3x + 1

Note :

( m = slope and b = y-intercept )

Hope my answer helps!!

Answer 2

Answer:

... y = mx + b ( a ) Given : ... ( 2 , -2 ) and slope=1.4 ... y = mx + b ... -2 = 2×1.4 + b ... -2 = 2.8 + b ... -4.8 = b The slope-intercept form : ... y = 1.4x - 4.8( b ) Given : ... ( -1 , 4 ) and slope = -3. y = mx + b ... 4 = -3×-1 + b ... 4 = 3 + b ... 1 = b The slope-intercept form : ... y = -3x + 1 Note :  ( m = slope and b = y-intercept ) Hope my answer helps more math stuff
