Find an equation of a line with slope 1/5 passing through the point (10,9)

(x, y)

(10,9)

We know the linear equation formula is y = mx + b

m is the slope, which we know to be 1/5

Plug in the coordinates to find b.

x = 10  y = 9

9 = 1/5(10) + b

9 = 2 + b

-2   -2    

7 = b

Final equation: y = 1/5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

c. prove the lengths are the same.

step-by-step explanation:

you need to prove the segments are congruent. congruent segments have the same length. find the lengths of the segments using the distance formula, and compare them.

answer: c. prove the lengths are the same.

the solution is h=10 because you add 9 to each side of the equation.
