What is the equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (-8, 1) and has a slope of 5/6?

y-1=(x+8)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. y-y1=m(x-x1) (point slope form)

2. y1 is the y of your given point and x1 is the x of your given point

3. m is the slope

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
