Write the equation in slope intercept form of a line that goes through (4,9) and has a slope of 1/2

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], hence

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (4, 9) into the partial equation

9 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 9 - 2 = 7

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 7 ← equation in slope-intercept form
