Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form with the given slope and the given point
F(-4,1), m=3/4
well you would use y=mx+b b is your y intercept and m is your slope, so just put the equation together using the coordinates and solve
Look in your book/classnote! I am pretty sure you could find an example in the book or your teacher gave you notes.
Given:
x1=-4
y1=1
m=3/4
Plug and Solve:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
they already gave me the slope so its 3/4 right
and then the y-intercept is 1 from (-4x,1) right
i don't have class notes my teacher dose not know how 2 teach i get lose sorry. and the book gets me lost.
Uhmmm you know how 2 help me graph that
I'm sorry, but do you fall asleep in class or something??? Your teacher should be able to teach something, he went to college right!?!?
that ain't no excuse besides i have a teacher who is a football coach, he teaches me a lot! anyway, wat "u dig" mean? besides, can't help ya, email your teacher or somethin, SORRY!
naw u don't get it coachz don't know how 2 teach they just do it for the extra money duh!!! think boy!!!
To write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form, we use the formula:
y = mx + b
where "m" represents the slope of the line, and "b" represents the y-intercept.
Given that the slope (m) is 3/4 and the point (F) is (-4,1), we can substitute these values into the equation to find the value of "b" (y-intercept).
Step 1: Substitute the values of "m" and the coordinates of the point (x, y) into the equation.
1 = (3/4)(-4) + b
Step 2: Simplify the equation by performing the multiplication and addition.
1 = -3 + b
Step 3: Isolate the variable "b" by adding 3 to both sides of the equation.
1 + 3 = b
4 = b
Step 4: Now we have the value of "b" (y-intercept), substitute it back into the slope-intercept form equation.
y = (3/4)x + 4
Therefore, the equation of the line with a slope of 3/4 and passing through the point F(-4,1) is y = (3/4)x + 4.
