Answer 1

Answer:

y = 2x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

y = (x , y) = 1

m = slope = 2

x = (x , y) = 10

b = y-intercept

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

1 = 2(10) + b

First, simplify, and then isolate the variable, b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, multiply 2 with 10:

1 = (2 * 10) + b

1 = 20 + b

Next, subtract 20 from both sides of the equation:

1 = b + 20

1 (-20) = b + 20 (-20)

1 - 20 = b

b = -19

Plug in 2 for m, and -19 for b.

y = 2x - 19 is your slope-intercept form.
