Question

A line that includes the point (4,1) has a slope of 1 7 . What is its equation in point-slope form?

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 17x-67

Step-by-step explanation:

The one point form of line also called slope point form is given by

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

where (x1, y1) is the point and m is slope

Given: (x1, y1) = (4,1) and m= 17

Substituting these values in above equation to find equation in point-slope form

(y-1)=17(x-4)

y-1 = 17x-68

y = 17x-67

the point -slope form of equation y = 17x-67
