Question 227441: state the equation ( in point-slope form) of a line that has a slope of 1 over 5 and passes through (10,-2) Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given:
m = 1/5
and passes through (10,-2)
.
Plug into "point-slope" form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - (-2) = (1/5)(x - 10)
y + 2 = (1/5)(x - 10)
y + 2 = (1/5)x - 2
y = (1/5)x - 2 -2
y = (1/5)x - 4
