A line passes through the point (9, 7) and has a slope of
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.
X

Answer 1

y=x-2

Explanation:

9 is 2 less than 7

if you just do y=x, when the line hits 9 on the x-axis, it is 2 units to high on the coordinate plane. So if you subtract 2, it hits the point.

on the graph below, the green line is y=x and the red one is y=x-2

(the blue point is (9, 7))
