Answer:

y=7x+65

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (-9,2) and has a slope of 7.

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

To start, you know what m is; it's just the slope, which you said was 7. So you can right away fill in the equation for a line somewhat to read:

y=7x+b.

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) point means:

(-9,2). When x of the line is -9, y of the line must be 2.

Because you said the line passes through this point, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: . b is what we want, the 7 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (-9,2).

So, why not plug in for x the number -9 and for y the number 2? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.

(-9,2). y=mx+b or 2=7 × -9+b, or solving for b: b=2-(7)(-9). b=65.

The equation of the line that passes through the point (-9,2) with a slope of 7

is

y=7x+65

Have a nice day!

Slope=8 y-intercept=-3 <br>write in slope-intercept​
maxonik [38]
Y= mx+b (slope intercept form)
m= the slope (in this case 8)
b= the y-intercept (-3)
the answer: y=8x-3
