Algebra.Com's Answer #46832 by algebrapro18(249)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! the point is (-8,0) and the slope is 2 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the equation for a line in point slope form is \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "pluging into the formula we get: \n" ); document.write( "y - 0 = 2(x + 8) \n" ); document.write( "this is the equation of the line in point slope form \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "simplifying we get: \n" ); document.write( "y = 2x + 16 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "from this we see that the graph intersects the y-axis at 16 and you can go up to in the y direction and over 1 in the x direction and you will have the graph. \n" ); document.write( " |
