Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (1,3) and has a slope
of 6?

Answer 1

y=6x-3

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

The equation of a line is in the form y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

The slope is already given.

y = 6x + b

Plug in the values of the coordinate point into the equation to find b.

-3 = 6(-1) + b

-3 = -6 + b

3 = b

The equation of the line is

y = 6x + 3
