Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the points (0,1) (4,2)

Answer 1

(0,1) and (4,2) have a line through them with slope = difference in y's over difference in x's = (2-1)/(4-0) = 1/4

y = mx +b plug in 1/4 for m, and 1 for b

y = (1/4)x + 1 is the line's equation in slope intercept form. b= y intercept = 1 = the point (0,1)

or most simply

y = x/4 +1
