Question

Please help me with this problem please

Answer 1

Answer:

y - 10 = 5(x - 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (15, 10) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (16, 15)

m = $\frac{15-10}{16-15}$ = $\frac{5}{1}$ = 5

Using (a, b) = (15, 10), then

y - 10 = 5(x - 15)
