Question

Write the equation of a line with slope M=1/2 and including point (4, -1). y=?

a.y=(1/2)x+3
b.y = -2x + 3
c.y=(1/2)x-3
d.y = 2x + 3

Answer 1

\[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\]

Answer 2

m is the slope and (x_1, y_1) is the point. So replace m with 1/2, x_1 with 4 and y_1 with -1 and then simplify.

Answer 3

(2,.5)?

Answer 4

a b c d?

Answer 5

Did you plug into the equation I posted?

Answer 6

i don't understand what to do.

Answer 7

Watch this: And remember I said to replace m with 1/2
