Question

Which answer is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope? Point: (1, 9) ; Slope: 5

y−1=5(x+9)

y+9=5(x−1)

y−9=5(x−1)

y−9=5(x+1)

Answer 1

The answer to your question is y – 9 = 5(x – 1)

Answer 2

Answer:
`(y-9)=5(x-1)`

Explanation:

We know that the equation of the line with slope 'm' and passing through point
`(x_0,y_0)` can be written as

`(y-y_0)=m(x-x_0)`

Given point
`(x_0,y_0)=(1,9)` and slope (m)=5

Therefore, the equation of line passing through (1,9) and have slope m=5 can be written as

`(y-9)=5(x-1)`
