Question

Find a point-slope of the line having the given slope and containing the given point. m=3/4, (1,6)
can someone help with this question. Thank you.

Answer 1

Use the equation of a line y=mx+b. You have x,y and the slope (m), you just need to solve for b, so:

y = mx +b
6 = (3/4)*1 + b
b = 6 - (3/4)*1
b = 21/4

Place b back in the original equation:
so the equation becomes y = (3/4)x + 21/4
