Question

Write the equation of a line that passes through the point (4,2) and has a
slope of 3.

Answer 1

y = 3x - 4

Explanation:

Answer 2

Start with your point-slope formula which is shown at the

top of the image that is provided below.

Then, plug in your appropriate values for the ordered pair (4, 2).

Now, simplify.

First distribute.

Then add 2 to both sides.

This leaves you with y = 3x - 10.
