The formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the point-slope form of the equation of a line where m is the slope of the line and (x, y) and

(x1, y1) are points of the line. Solve the equation for m, and find the slope of a line that includes the points (4, -2) and (5, 0).

Answer:

The slope of a line that includes the points (4, -2) and (5, 0) is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the point-slope form of the equation of a line where m is the slope of a line.

The line must include the points (4, -2) and (5, 0). So, being:

  • (x,y)= (4,-2)
  • (x1,y1)= (5, 0)

and replacing in the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

-2-0=m(4-5)

You solve the equation for m and get:

-2=m*(-1)

m=\frac{-2}{-1}

m=2

Stolb23 [73]

Let f(x) = y.

y = 4x - 12

Let x = 0

y = 4(0) - 12

y = - 12

This leads to the point (0, -12).

Let y = 0.

0 = 4x - 12

1 2 = 4x

12/4 = x

3 = x

This leads to the point (3, 0).

We now graph both points and then connect each point with a straight line.

Find the equation of a line given that: slope =5, y-intercept is (0,4). Standard form or slope intercept form?
Pie
So the slope is 5 and you know the points, (0,4)
y-4=5(x-0)
y-4 = 5x
y = 5x + 4 is the slope intercept form
standard form is: -5x + y = 4 OR y - 5x = 4
