If a line includes the points (8,0) and (20,12). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

8 0

The slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

substitute the coordinates of the points (8, 0) and (20, 12) to the formula:

m=\dfrac{12-0}{20-8}=\dfrac{12}{12}=1

y = 1x + b = x + b

Put the coordinates of the point (8, 0) to the equation of a line:

0 = 8 + b      <em>subtract 8 from both sides</em>

-8 = b

<h3>Answer: y = x - 8</h3>

It will be c- 20:
4q and 2(q+30) have to equal the same therefore q=30 which makes both these equations equal.
3p + 4q then have to equal 180 as they are on a straight line so you know q=30 so 4x30=120 so 180-120=60
Then 60/3=20 and that is your answer.
Hope this helps :)

How do I find point-slope form???
Nana76 [90]
I believe the answer is: By using the point slope formula, which states that a given point (x1, y1) and a slope m, the equation of the line can be written as y - y1 = m(x - x1)
