Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point ( 8 , 6 ) and has a slope of 1/4

Answer 1

Hey Si,

use equation of line:

y-y0= m (x-xo) and plug in values of y0=6, x0=8 and m=1/4

y-6= 1/4 (x-8) => y-6= x/4 - 2

in the end add 6 to both sides and get: y= x/4 + 4

Let me know if this helps
