Write the standard form of the line that contains a slope of -1/2 and y intercept of 1

1 answer:

7 0

The equation for the stand form of a line is y = mx + b.

You will need
m = slope
b = y-intercept

The question already gave you both of those so you simply put them into the equation "y=mx+b"

m = -1/2
y-intercept = 1
Plug those into "y = mx + b"

Your equation is: y = -1/2x + 1

Equation of the line passing through (7,5) and (1, 2)

Trava [24]

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is a linear equation in the form of $y = mx + b$ , we can first solve for the slope using $\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$ , for these points, the slope would be $\frac{1}{2}$ . Now we plug in the points to get the equation:
