Answer:

The point-slope equation for a line is:

y-\left(-1\right)=\frac{1}{5}\left(x-5\right)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The point = (5, -1)
  • m = 1/5

We know that the point-slope form is

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

where m is the slope of the line

substituting the values m = 1/5 and the point (5, -1)

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

y-\left(-1\right)=\frac{1}{5}\left(x-5\right)

Thus, the point-slope equation for a line is:

y-\left(-1\right)=\frac{1}{5}\left(x-5\right)

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

( 8 , 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A = ( 2 , 2 ) and C = ( 5 , 4 )

→ Form an equation

\frac{2+x}{2} =5   and   \frac{2+y}{2}=4

→ Now solve them

2 + x = 10 and 2 + y = 6

→ Simply find the values

x = 8 and y = 6
