Someone help lol

fantino_italiano · Answer

okay man like I need help, and I just pressed a "bump" button I don't know what that means lol

kl0723 · Answer

$$y – y_{1} = m(x – x_{2})$$

kl0723 · Answer

this is your slope form equation, means the answer should be in this form

kl0723 · Answer

now we need to identify which one is which and find the slope which is "m"

kl0723 · Answer

first point is (0,2)
second point is (1,5)

fantino_italiano · Answer

okay awesome

kl0723 · Answer

x1=0
y1=2

kl0723 · Answer

that's for the first point

fantino_italiano · Answer

Okay

kl0723 · Answer

then we have that x2=1 and y2=5

kl0723 · Answer

now you can use the slope formula:
$$m=\frac{ (y2-y1) }{ (x2-x1) }$$

kl0723 · Answer

can you plug in the numbers and solve for it?

kl0723 · Answer

what would be the result?

fantino_italiano · Answer

Hey sorry lol this whole site is confusing, but is the answer d? That was my initial thought

kl0723 · Answer

m=3

kl0723 · Answer

plug in all the values into the equation form to get your answer

fantino_italiano · Answer

Okay so like
M=y(5-1)
And then x (0- 2)?

fantino_italiano · Answer

Wait no that's wrong I wrote it wrong one sec

kl0723 · Answer

this is the equation: y–y1=m(x–x2)
you have y1=2 and x2=1

kl0723 · Answer

now we plug in the values tht we know, the rest is the same:
y-2 = 3(x-1)

fantino_italiano · Answer

Can you just message me this site keeps redirecting me

kl0723 · Answer

I know, it's kind of buggy

fantino_italiano · Answer

Yeah message me real quick
