Question 527894: Please help me solve this-
Write the point slope form of an equation of the line that passes through the given point and has given slope.
(4,5),m=3

Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Point slope form is

y - y1 = m(x - x1)


where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is the given point


In your case, the slope is m = 3 and the given point is (4,5). So x1 = 4 and y1 = 5


Plug all this in to get


y - y1 = m(x - x1)


y - 5 = 3(x - 4)


So the answer is y - 5 = 3(x - 4)
