Write the equation of the line which has a slope of 4/5 and passes through (5,3). Write the answer in slope intercept form

2 answers

y = mx + b; m = 4 / 5 ; x = 5 ; y = 3, solve for b
you have a point and a slope, so start with the point-slope form.

y-3 = 4/5 (x-5)

Now just rearrange to y=mx+b form
