With undefined slope, through (1/4, 5)

2 answers

1. you are given the slope and the y-intercept.
You are asked to write the equation in slope intercept form
You know that form is y = mx + b
so just replace m and b

2. first find the slope:
slope = (6-4)/(4-6) = 2/-2 = -1
so you must have:
y = -x + b
sub in the point (4,6) , or (6,4) if you feel like it
with (4,6)
6 = -(4) + b
b = 10
your equation is y = -x + 10

3. All vertical lines have equation x = ???
look at your given point, the x value is 1/4

so your equation is y = 1/4
#3: x = 1/4
