Question

Write an equation of the line through the point (-10, 0) with slope of -1/2

Answer 1

y = 1/2x + 5

Explanation:

We can use point slope form since we are given a point and the slope

y -y1 = m( x-x1)

where ( x1,y1) is a point and m is the slope

y -0 = 1/2 (x- -10)

y = 1/2( x+10)

y = 1/2x + 5
