Question

Write an equation in standard form for the line that passes through (4, 4) and has a x-intercept of 3?

Answer 1

Answer:

y=4(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

if x=3, subtract 3 from each side to get x-3=0

point (4, 4). That is, when x=4, y=4.

Plug those in and solve for a.  

y=a(x-3)

4=a(4-3)

4=a(1)

4=a

 Thus,  

y=4(x-3)
