Question

Find the value of y so that the line passing through (2, 6) and (1, y) has a slope of 5

Answer 1

I have the equation \[-3=\frac{ 5-y }{ 7-6 }\] I just don't know how to solve it :/

Answer 2

first of all \(\color{blue}{welcome :) to :) open :) study :)}\)

Answer 3

thanks :)

Answer 4

so slope intercept form equation is y = mx + b
where m is slope which is always with x and b is y-intercept

Answer 5

they gave you slope you have x and y value so first you have to solve for b
