Question

Find the equation of a line which passes through (2 4) with a slope of ½​

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation of the straight line is  x - 2y +6 =0

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given a point ( 2, 4) and slope m =  $\frac{1}{2}$

The equation of the straight line passing through the point and having slope 'm'

          y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁)

           y - 4 = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( x - 2)

          2( y -4) = ( x-2)

          2 y - 8 = x -2

          x - 2 y - 2 + 8 =0

          x - 2y + 6 =0

The equation of the straight line is  x - 2y +6 =0
