Write the equation of the line if fully simplified slope in intercept form

viva [34]

Answer:

As we have seen before, you can write the equation of any line in the form of y = mx + b . This is the so-called slope intercept form, because it gives you two important pieces of information: the slope m and the y-intercept b of the line. You can use these values for linear interpolation later.

Find the equation of the line that contains the given point and the given slope. Write the equation in slope-intercept form.

stealth61 [152]

The slope-point form of a line:

$y-y_0=m(x-x_0)$

The slope-intercept form of a line:

$y=mx+b$

$m=6,\ (4,\ 1)\to x_0=4,\ y_0=1$

Substitute

$y-1=6(x-4)\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\y-1=6x-24\qquad|\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\\\boxed{y=6x-23}$

$m=-5,\ (6,\ -3)$

Substitute

$y-(-3)=-5(x-6)\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\y+3=-5x+30\qquad|\text{subtract 5 from both sides}\\\\\boxed{y=-5x+24}$

$m=-\dfrac{1}{2},\ (-8,\ 2)\\\\y-2=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x-(-8))\\\\y-2=-\dfrac{1}{2}(x+8)\\\\y-2=-\dfrac{1}{2}x-4\qquad|\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x-2}$
