Answer:

  b. y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a matter of definition. There are perhaps a dozen useful forms of equations for a line. Each has its own name (and use). Here are some of them.

  • slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
  • point-slope form: y -y1 = m(x -x1)
  • two-point form: y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)(x -x1) +y1
  • intercept form: x/a +y/b = 1
  • standard form: ax +by = c
  • general form: ax +by +c = 0

Adding y1 to the point-slope form puts it in an alternate form that is useful for getting to slope-intercept form faster: y = m(x -x1) +y1. I use this when asked to write the equation of a line with given slope through a point, with the result in slope-intercept form.

Solve 5x - 8y = 11 for y.
disa [49]

Answer:

y = \frac{5x-11}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5x - 8y = 11 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

- 8y = 11 - 5x ( multiply through by - 1 )

8y = - 11 + 5x = 5x - 11 ( divide both sides by 8 )

y = \frac{5x-11}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles in a quadrilateral is 360°

the square represents a right angle= 90 degrees

124+66+90=280

360-280=80

x=80
