a line passes through (1, 9) and has a slope of 5, what is the equation of this answer? 20 Points.

Respuesta :

Because it has a slope of 5, we can already set up part of the equation:

y = 5x

Now, we need to find the y-intercept.

We can do that by subtracting 1 from the x value of the provided coordinate pair, and subtracting 5 from 9.

1 - 1 = 0

9 - 5 = 4

The y-intercept is 4.

Our equation is y = 5x + 4
