Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line through the point (1,-3) with a slope of 2.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is

$\huge y = 2x - 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line when given the slope and a point we use the formula

$y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$

From the question we have

$y + 3 = 2(x - 1) \\ y + 3 = 2x - 2 \\ y = 2x - 2 - 3$

We have the final answer as

$y = 2x - 5$

Hope this helps you
