There are two types of formula to find the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First method\[y=mx+c\]second method\[(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[given~that~the~gradient,m=7\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[and~the~point (5,-9)=(x,y)/(x_1,y_1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now let's use the first method \[y=mx+c\]substitute x=5,y=-9 and m=7 into the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-9=7(5)+c\]\[c=-44\]\[Therefore,y=7x-44\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now let's use the second method\[(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)\]substitute x_1=5,y_1=-9 and m=7 into the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(y-(-9))=7(x-5)\]\[(y+9)=7(x-5)\]
