slope-intercept form, write the equation of the line
that passes through the point (4, 2) with a slope of 5.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]y=5x-18[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

Point A = (4, 2) = (x, y)
Slope = 5

To find the answer we are going to have to use the formula for slope intercept, substitute the values, then solve for the variable b to have our answer.

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
[tex]y=2[/tex]
[tex]m=5[/tex]
[tex]x=4[/tex]
[tex]2=5(4)+b[/tex]
[tex]5\times4=20[/tex]
[tex]2=20+b[/tex]
[tex]20-20=0[/tex]
[tex]2-20=-18[/tex]
[tex]-18=b[/tex]
[tex]b=-18[/tex]
[tex]y=5x-18[/tex]

Your answer is "y = 5x - 18."

Hope this helps.
