Question

Write the equation of a line in slope intercept form that contains the points (0,2) and (3,4)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally equation of a line is given as

y=mx+c

Then given the point (x, y)=(0,2)

Therefore x=0 and y=2

y=mx+c

2=m×0+c

2=0+c

Then, c=2

Then intercept is 2

Also given the point (x, y)=(3,4)

x=3 and y=4 and c=2

y=mx+c

4=m×3+2

4=3m+2

4-2=3m

2=3m

Then, m=2/3

Then, the slope of the graph is 2/3

y=mx+c

Now, m=2/3 and c=2

The general equation of the line becomes

y=2/3x+2

Multiply through by 3

3y=2x+6

Then this is the equation of the line
