Want this question answered?
In coordinate geometry, each point in the plane is identified by an ordered pair, (x,y) which are known as the coordinates of the point. The equation of any straight line in the coordinate plane can be written in the form y = mx + c so that the coordinates of each point on the line satisfies this equation (and the coordinates of a point outside the line doed not satisfies it). The equation in this form is known as the slope-intercept form. m is the slope and c is the intercept.
The point with the given coordinates does not lie on the curve and so the question makes no sense.
Two sets of points are needed to determine the slope of a line
That will depend on the value of the slope which has not been given.
There are an infinity of lines passing through the point whose coordinates are (2,2), each with a different slope [gradient]. The equation of the line will be of the form (y - 2) = m*(x - 2) where m is the gradient.
-5
if a line has a slope of -2 and a point on the line has coordinates of (3, -5) write an equation for the line in point slope form
The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.The slope of a line and the coordinates of a point on the line.
(y - y1) = m*(x - x1) where (x1, y1) are the coordinates of a point on the line and , is the slope.
The equation for a line of slope m going through point (Xo, Yo) is given by: y - Yo = m(x - Xo) So for line of slope 2 going through (1, 9) the equation is: y - 9 = 2(x - 1) ⇒ y = 2x + 7

"14" is not a point; you need two coordinates to specify a point.
The point with the given coordinates does not lie on the curve and so the question makes no sense.
Using the slope formula, So the slope -intercept form is: Hint Substitute coordinates of one point Step 2 Substituting the coordinates of the first point, we have: Subtracting 8 from both sides, we get: Thus the equation is:
Y = 6
