Question

What is the slope of the line whose equation is y-4=5/2(x-2)? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,

Equation of the slope is, y = mx + c.   Where m is the slope.

y - 4 = 5/2*(x-2)

y = 5/2*(x-2) + 4

y = (5/2)x - 5 + 4

y = (5/2)x - 1

y = (5/2)x + (-1)      [y = mx + c form]

Slope, m = 5/2

Answer 2

Simplify 52⋅(x−2)52⋅(x-2). Apply the distributive property. y−4=5/2x+5/2⋅−2 Combine 5252 and x

y−4=5x2+5/2⋅−2 Cancel the common factor of 2.Factor 2 out of −2

y−4=5x2+52⋅(2(−1))y-4=5x2+52⋅(2(-1))

Cancel the common factor.

y−4=5x2+52⋅(2⋅−1)y-4=5x2+52⋅(2⋅-1)

Rewrite the expression.

y−4=5x2+5⋅−1y-4=5x2+5⋅-1

Multiply 55 by −1-1.

y−4=5x2−5

Add 44 to both sides of the equation.

y=5x2−5+4y=5x2-5+4

Add −5-5 and 44.

y=5x2−1

Reorder terms.

y=52x−1

THE ANSWER IS M = 5/2
