Question

A line passes through the point (1, 5) and has a slope of -9.​

Answer 1

y= -9x+14

Explanation:

the equation of a straight line is y=mx+c

m is the slope

And we are given a y and x term

So we substitute these into the equation:

5= -9(1) + c

rearragne to find c

14= c

so the full equation is:

y= -9x+14
