How do you determine whether a point is on a given line or not?
Substitute the coordinates of the point into the equation of the line. If the equation is still valid then the point is on the line; if not then it is not.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y 5x 2?

What is the slope of the line given by the equation y equals 11.2x?
Well, to answer your question,
How do I write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line Write the answer in slope-intercept form?
The standard equation for a straight line is y = mx + c. Let this be the equation of the original line. Note that m and c are known values. Let the given point coordinates be (a,b)Two straight lines are perpendicular if the product of their gradients (slopes) is -1.The slope (m1) of the perpendicular line is therefore m1 = -1/mWhen y = b then x = a so the equation for the perpendicular line is y = m1x + d, and substituting gives : b = -a/m + d and this will enable d to be calculated.NOTE : In the absence of information for the equation of the original line and the coordinates of the given point then this is a general rather than a specific answer.
What is the equation of the line with the given slope 7 y-intercept -8?
From the given information the straight line equation is: y = 7x-8
Given the equation of a line how is the slope calculated?
If the equation of a line is in the form ax + by + c = 0 then the slope of the line will be -a/b.
Writing an equation given a slope and a point?
If the slope m is given at a point (xo, yo) of a line, then the equation of the line is given by: y - yo = m(x - xo)
How do you determine whether a point is on a given line or not?
Substitute the coordinates of the point into the equation of the line. If the equation is still valid then the point is on the line; if not then it is not.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y3.8x?
If you mean: y = 3.8x then the slope is 3.8 with no y intercept
The line given by the equation y equals -8x is perpendicular to what line?
It would be perpendicular to a line with the equation Y = 1/8 X.
What is an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line?
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line (-7,3); x=4
What points are on the line given by the equation y -3x 5?
But it's not an equation because there is no equal sign and no points are given.
What is the slope of the line given by the equation y-7x?
y - 7x is not an equation but an expression. It cannot, therefore, define a line.
How do write an equation of a line when given the slope a point of the line?
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
What is the x-intercept of the line given by the equation?
I accidently do not finish the equation part. I will put it up
Could you write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line given that passes through the point shown?
Yes, I could, if I knew the slope of the line given.
