SOLUTION: Find an equation of the line that goes through the point (1,1) and have a slope equal to 1, graph it. Would my two sets of points be (1,1) and (2,2) since this would be a slop

Question 6389: Find an equation of the line that goes through the point (1,1) and have a slope equal to 1, graph it.

Would my two sets of points be (1,1) and (2,2) since this would be a slope of 1? Not sure how to graph.

Please HELP! This is going to be my last question for some time. I would again appreciate an immediate response if possible. Thank you to whomever answers. You don't know how much I appreciate all the help I have gotten on this site. You are all angels to me. Thanks again.
Answer by prabhjyot(165) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given : slope (m) = 1
point(1,1) x value = 1, y-value =1
Slope intercept form of a straight line
y = mx +b
we are given y,m,a ,the only thing we dont have is value for b (which gives y-intercepts)
All we have todo is to plug the value of y,x and m in the abov equation and thensolve for b
1=1*1+b
b=0
puting values in the above equation
y= 1x+0
so equation of straight line is y=x
