Question

Write an equation in point slope form of the line that passes through the point -4, 5 and has the slope of one.

Answer 1

Answer:

y - 5 = x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use point slope form, y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line

Plug in the given point and slope:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 1(x + 4)

Simplify:

y - 5 = x + 4

So, the point slope form of the line is y - 5 = x + 4
