find the equation of a line passing through (1/2,-1/2) with gradient 1/4

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the point/slope form of the equation of a straight line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)  where m = slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

So for the first  part its

y - 6 = 2(x - 5)  Now simplify:-

y = 2x - 10 + 6

y = 2x - 4

You can do the  others in exactl

y the same way
