Question

4) For questions a-c use the equation y − 2 = 13(x + 5) given in point slope form.

a) What is the slope of the line? b) What is a coordinate point on the line?

c) Sketch the graph of y − 2 = 13(x + 5) on the graph below:

Answer 1

a) 13, b) (-5, 2)

Explanation:

Point slope form of a line is:

y − y₁ = m (x − x₁)

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

In this case, m = 13 and (x₁, y₁) = (-5, 2).

Here's a graph:
