Question

Find the equation of the line (in slope-intercept form) through the points (1,-4) and with slope 5/2.

Answer 1

Answer:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

Where m is the slope

c is the y intercept

Equation of the line using point

( 1 , - 4) and slope 5/2 is

$y + 4 = \frac{5}{2} (x - 1) \\ \\ y + 4 = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{5}{2} \\ \\ y = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{5}{2} - 4 \\ \\ \\ y = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{13}{2}$
