write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (5,6) with slope (3,5)

Answer 1

slope = m, y intercept = b

y=mx +b is slope intercept form

m=1/2= (6-5)/(5-3)

y=(1/2)x +b, plug in either point to find b

6=5/2+b

b=6-5/2 = 3 1/2

y=.5x + 3.5 is the equation of the line through the two given points
