Question

A line passes through the point (0, 3) and has a slope of 5/4 What is the equation of the line?
A.
5x – 4y = –12
B.
5x + 4y = 12
C.
5x – 4y = –3
D.
5x + 4y = 3

Answer 1

Please plug the given information into the "point-slope form of the equation of a straight line." Know that equation?

Answer 2

use this equation (y-3) = m (x - 0)

Answer 3

Yes, and that equation is a specific case of \[y-y _{0}=m(x-x _{0})\]...which is imporant and well worth knowing.
