Question

Write the slope-intercept form of the line which passes through (4, 2) with a slope of 1/2.


y = 1/2 x + 4

y = 1/2 x

y = 1/2 x + 2

Answer 1

let's write the equation in point-slope form first then we transform it to slope-intercept form

the general equation in point-slope form is
\[y-y_0 = m(x-x_0)\]

where m is the slope and (x0,y0) is a point on the line

Answer 2

so can you write the point-slope form of the given line ?
