What is the equation of the line with m = 6 that goes through the point (1, 4)?
2 answers:
Answer: B) y-4=6(x-1)
Substitute the point into each equation
A: y-4=6(x+1)
4-4=6(1+1)
4-4=6+6
0=12
This is false so it is not the answer
B: y-4=6(x-1)
4-4=6(1-1)
4-4=6-6
0=0
This is true so this is the answer, but I will continue solving just to check
C: y+4=6(x-1)
4+4=6(1-1)
4+4=6-6
8=0
This is false so it is not the answer
D: y+4=6(x+1)
4+4=6(1+1)
4+4=6+6
8=12
This is not true so it is not the answer
Your answer becomes b, the only true equation! Hope this helps comment below for more questions :)
Since it's a line we are talking about linear equation of a form

where
is slope and
is y-intercept.
Our particular line has a form of

So we are missing the y-intercept.
To find y-intercept
we insert the coordinates of point
and solve for 

So the final form of the line is

Or as offered in the answers

The answer is B.
Hope this helps.
