Question
Write an equation of each line with the given slope and containing the given point. Write the equation in the slope-intercept form $y=m x+b .$ See Example $1 .$Slope $\frac{1}{2} ;$ through (-6,2)
Step 1
Step 1: We start with the point-slope form of the equation of a line, which is $y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)$, where $m$ is the slope and $(x_1, y_1)$ is the given point. Show more…
