Question

What is the equation of the

line in slope intercept form
that has a slope of and
2
passes through (2,3).

Answer 1

y = 2x - 1

Explanation:

Here we have the slope, m = 2, and one point on the line, (2, 3). Plugging these values into the point-slope formula y - k = m(x - h), we get:

y - 3 = 2(x - 2), or y = 3 + 2x - 4, or y = 2x - 1 in slope-intercept form.
