Find the equation of the line that has a slope of 3/4 and passes through a point (-2,5).
.
Plug given information into the "point-slope" form":
y - y1 = m(x -x1)
y - 5 = (3/4)(x -(-2))
y - 5 = (3/4)(x+2)
y - 5 = (3/4)x + 3/2
y = (3/4)x + 3/2 + 5
y = (3/4)x + 3/2 + 10/2
y = (3/4)x + 13/2 (slope-intercept form)
