The equation is:
y
=
5
4
x
−
13
Explanation:
The slope-intercept form of a straight line is
y
=
m
x
+
c
In this case we have a point,
(
x
,
y
)
and the slope,
m
so all we need is a value for
c
.
Substitute into
y
=
m
x
+
c

Answer:
y= 1 1/4x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
first, plot the point (8,9)
now lets plot some more points, points that are part of this line.
rise/run 5/4, so 5 up and 4 to the right, and a point on the left, 5 down 4 to the left. I'll do that again, 5 down and 4 to the left. In other problems, do this until you find the y intercept. (which ended up being (0,-1)
slope-intercept form is mx+b
m is the slope, b is the y-intercept
in this case b is -1
the y-intercept coordinate will always have the x value being 0 so it would be (0, varies) which in this case it is (0, -1)
now lets find the value of m.
since the slope, 5/4, can not be simplified to a whole number, it'll just be 1 1/4.
m ends up being 1 1/4.
fill it in, now.
y= 1 1/4x -1
-----------------
the process to find an equation knowing only a point and the slope for future reference:
plot the points until you find a y intercept (sometimes you have to make a line and find a fraction for a y intercept)
simplify the slope
fill it into mx+b
m=slope
b= y-intercept
hopefully this was helpful
