Question

I want a line with equation y=mx+9 to pass through the point (10,10). What is m?

please please help

Answer 1

• y = 0.1x + 9

Explanation:

Given

• Line y = mx + 9,
• Point (10 , 10).

To find the slope plug in the coordinates of the given point, x = 10 and y = 10 and solve for m:

• 10 = 10m + 9
• 10m = 10 - 9
• 10m = 1
• m = 1/10
• m = 0.1

The line is:

• y = 0.1x + 9
