Question

Find an equation of the line with the given slope that passes through the given point. Write the equation in the form Ax + By = C.
m = 2, (8,8)

Answer 1

Answer:

2x - y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey,

To create this equation in standard form, you first have to form it in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept Form= y = mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

y = 2x + b

To Find B, we will substitute the ordered pair (8,8) as x and y.

8= 2(8) + b

8 = 16 + b

Subtract 16 from both sides.

8-16 = 8 +16 -16 +b

Simplify.

-8 = b

Substitute in the equation

y = 2x -8

Convert to Standard Form.

Subtract 2x on bot sides.

y - 2x = 2x - 2x - 8

y - 2x = -8

Multiply Entire equation by -1.

-1(y - 2x = -8)

2x - y = 8

Hope I helped, Have a nice day!
