Question

Write an equation of the line through the given point with the given slope. Write the equation in slope-intercept form.
(8, 0), m =1/2
A. y = 2x - 4
B. y= -1/2x-4
C. y= 1/2x-4
D. y= 1/2x+4

Answer 1

y = mx + b
y = 1/2x + b
Plug in the coordinate:
0 = 1/2(8) + b
0 = 4 + b
b = -4
Therefore:
y = 1/2x - 4

Answer 2

(y-0)=1/2(x-8)
y=1/2x-4

Answer 3

thanks everyone :)
