Question

The equation y minus 5 = 6 (x + 1) is written in point-slope form. What is the equation written in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

y = 6x + 11

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c

Given

y - 5 = 6(x + 1) ← distribute

y - 5 = 6x + 6 ( add 5 to both sides )

y = 6x + 11 ← in slope- intercept form

Answer 2

y = 6x + 11

Explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c

Given

y - 5 = 6(x + 1) ← distribute

y - 5 = 6x + 6 ( add 5 to both sides )

y = 6x + 11 ← in slope- intercept form
