Question

slope of line that passes through (-2,8) with slope of 2

Answer 1

So they already give you the slope m = 2, but you still have to find the slope anyway?

Answer 2

i worded tht wrong........standard form equation of the line passing through (-2, 8) with a slope of 2?

Answer 3

Plug in given values into y = mx + b, then find b:

8 = 2(-2) + b
8 = -4 + b
8 - 4 = b
4 = b

Write the equation of the line with m = 2, b = 4

y = 2x + 4

subtract y from both sides, then subtract 4 from both sides:

2x - y = -4

Answer 4

thank you
