Question

How do you write the point slope form of the equation given m=6 and (2,5)?

Answer 1

`y=6x-7`

Explanation:

`y-y_0=m(x-x_0)`

We are given the slope `m=6`, and the point `(2,5)`, which gives us `x_0` and `y_0`

So, `y-y_0=m(x-x_0)=>y-5=6(x-2)`

`=>y-5=6x-12`

`=>y=6x-7`

Hope this helps :)
