Answer:
a) b = -5
b) slope = 3/2
Explanation:
a) The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept on the y axis.
Given that y = 3x + b and it passes through the point (2, 1). Hence when x = 2, y = 1. Therefore, substituting for x and y:
1 = 3(2) + b
1 = 6 + b
b = 1 - 6
b = -5
b) The equation of a line passing through two points () and
is given by:
The equation of the line passing through the two points (0,3) and (4,9) is:
Comparing y = (3/2)x + 3 with y = mx + b, the slope (m) is 3/2
