Question

A line passes through the point (1,3) and has a slope of 5. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient is also known as slope . The gradient of a line is represented by the equation

Slope (m)  = y - y1/ x - x1

Where m = 5 , x1= 1 and y1 = 3

Imputing the values into the equation

m = y - y1/ x - x1

5 = y - 3 /x - 1

Cross multiply, we have

y -3 = 5(x - 1)

Expand

y-3 = 5x - 5

Add 3 to both sides

y-3+3 = 5x - 5 +3

y = 5x - 2
