A line passes through the point (8,6) and has a slope of 5/4 . what is the equation?
(8,6) and has a slope of 5/4
We can write first in point-slope from and then convert to slope-intercept form......we have
y - 6 =(5/4)(x - 8) simplify
y - 6 = (5/4)x - 10 add 6 to both sides
y = (5/4)x - 4 ......and that's it....!!!!
