what is the equation in slope intercept form of a line that goes through (4,1) and has a slope of 1/4

Question

i want to know what the slope intercept form equation is for the equation listed above.

Answer 1

The slope intercept form is y= mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

 

m(slope) is 1/4   you can use the point (4,1) in the equation as x and y and then find b

 

1= 1/4(4) +b

1=1 +b

0=b

 

now go  back and plug m and b into the equation   y=1/4x +0
