Question

use the information given to you to write an equation in standard form. Slope is 3, and (1,4) is on the line. Please include a step by step explanation if you can.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so you know that the slope is 3, so every time the x goes up 1  the y goes to the right 3

so if you know that (1, 4) is on the line, then you will have to go down 1 and to the left 3 to decrease both the x and y values

1 - 1 = 0        4 - 3 = 1

(0, 1)

so this shows that the y-intercept is 1

making the equation:

y = 3x + 1

im sorry its not a good explanation but i hope it kind of makes sense

the line will look like this:
