Find the equation of the line in slopeintercept form passing

Find the equation of the line (in slope-intercept form) passing through the point (1, -7) having slope m = 2.

Solution

Let the equation of line in Slope intercept will be

y = 2x+c, where 2 is the slope

Put x = 1 and y = -7

We get

-7 =2*1+c

c= -9

So Equation of line in Slope intercept form will be

y = 2x-9
