Question

Help me plez? the line that passes through (-2,0) and has a slope of 5 in point slope form

Answer 1

do you need a graph or the equation?

Answer 2

the equation

Answer 3

ok

Answer 4

woud it be y=8x+3??

Answer 5

I mean y=-8x+3

Answer 6

how did you get that?

Answer 7

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Answer 8

so was it right or wrong?

Answer 9

it was not correct

Answer 10

whoops sorry that was my answer to the previous question

Answer 11

ah ok

Answer 12

you should get something like y=5x+10

Answer 13

so the answer for the line that passes through (-2,0) and has a slope of 5 in point slope form is y=5x+10?

Answer 14

y-0=5(x+2)
y-0=5x+10
y=5x+10

Answer 15

yes

Answer 16

another question: the line with a slope of -8 and a y intercept of 3 (in slope intercept form)

Answer 17

would it come out to y=-8x+3

Answer 18

yes

Answer 19

actually no

Answer 20

okay thanks also How do I write a equation for: the horizontal line that passes through (-2,6)

Answer 21

wait srry about that ignore the previous message

Answer 22

okay

Answer 23

the horizontal line equation is just y=6

Answer 24

can u show how u got that? plez

Answer 25

Whenever you want the equation of a
horizontal line it is always the y value.

Answer 26

same thing for the vertical line if you want the x value.

Answer 27

so (-2,6) is in the form of (x,y)

Answer 28

Ahh I see thanks

Answer 29

Use the point-slope form linear equation: y+4=-4(x-2)
Rewrite this equation in slope-intercept form.

Answer 30

slope intercept form:y=mx+b
m=slope
(x,y)=point
b=y-intercept

Answer 31

just solve the above equation for y

Answer 32

y=-4x+4

Answer 33

did u get it?

Answer 34

ur a life saver.. how do I write it in standerd form

Answer 35

this is the standard form

Answer 36

then how do I write it in slope intercept form?

Answer 37

y=-4x+4

Answer 38

so its written the same way both times?

Answer 39

yes.

Answer 40

thanks a lot. what is the x-intercept of this line?

Answer 41

ur wm:)u plug in 0 for y and then solve for x

Answer 42

so it would be (0,-4)?

Answer 43

no,its (0,1)

Answer 44

can u show me how u got that?

Answer 45

y=-4x+4
0=-4x+4
-4=-4x
-1=x

Answer 46

for the y intercept I got (0,8) is that right?

Answer 47

no,its (0,4),and sorry,the x-intercept is(1,0).

Answer 48

so at the end it would be 1=x?

Answer 49

yes.u r correct:)

Answer 50

lol ur the best! Im almost done. What is the equation in standard for of a perpendicular line that passes through(5,1)?

Answer 51

are u still there?

Answer 52

yes,i have to submit an assignment by 5pm so im trying to do my last question.sorry for the late reply:)

Answer 53

its okay go ahead and finish ur assignment

Answer 54

i don't understand ur question

Answer 55

Use the point-slope form linear equation: y+4=-4(x-2)
What is the equation in standard for of a perpendicular line that passes through(5,1)?

Answer 56

y=1/4x-1/4 is the perpendicular line's equaton in slope intercept form

Answer 57

:0 I have to write it in standard form.. and show work dude ur seriously the best :)

Answer 58

y+4=-4(x-2)
the slope of this line is -4,so the slope of the perpendicular line is 1/4.
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-1=1/4(x-5)
y-1=1/4x-5/4
y=1/4x-5/4+1
y=1/4x-1/4

Answer 59

r u still confused?

Answer 60

nope u really helped :DD

Answer 61

what is the x intercept of the perpendicular line?

Answer 62

(1,0)

Answer 63

can u plez show me how u got that mayaal?

Answer 64

sure.i substituted 0 for y,and then solved the equation to find x.

Answer 65

I wish I can u a medal.. what is the equation in standard form of a parallel line that passes through (0,2)
