Question

Write an equation in slope intercept form with the slope as 1/3 and the point (-3,4)

Answer 1

`y = (1)/(3)x + 5`

Explanation:

Slope (m) = 1/3

(-3 , 4)

y - y1 = m(x -x1)

y - 4 = (1/3) (x - [-3])

`y - 4 = (1)/(3)(x + 3)\\\\y - 4 = (1)/(3)x + (1)/(3)*3\\\\y - 4 = (1)/(3)x + 1\\\\ y = (1)/(3)x + 1 + 4\\\\ y = (1)/(3)x + 5`
