Question

Find the equation (in slope-intercept form) of the line with the given slope that passes through the point with the given coordinates.
slope: 2, ordered pair: (1, -1)

Answer 1

Answer:

y=2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form : y=mx+b

where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept

For slope intercept form, the only values that we need to find is m and b, so we just need to plug in 2 for the slope and the ordered pair for x and y to find b.

$y=mx+b\\y=2x+b\\-1=2(1)+b\\-1=2+b\\-2 -2\\-3=b\\\\answer: y=2x-3$
