Write the point slope form, standard form, and slope intercept form of a line that passes through (3,5) with a slope of 1

Answer 1

Point-slope form looks like: y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)

y - 5 = 1(x - 3) [you may omit the 1]

Standard Form looks like : Ax + By = C

slope 1 = (-A/B)

use point (3,5) to find C

x - y = -2

Slope-intercept form looks like: y = mx + b

y = 1x + 2 [you may omit the 1 and just say y=x+2 ]

CAUTION: Since the problem asked for specific forms of the equation. you should resist the tendency to continue changing it [note: often, to slope-intercept form, y=mx+b ].
