Q. Use point-slope form to write the equation of a line that passes through the point (7,7) with slope 32.Answer:
Recall Point-Slope Form: Recall the point-slope form of a line's equation. The point-slope form of a line's equation is given by y−y1=m(x−x1), where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line.
Identify Slope and Point: Identify the slope m and the point (x1,y1) through which the line passes.From the problem, we have the slope m=32 and the point (x1,y1)=(7,7).
Substitute into Equation: Substitute the slope and the point into the point-slope form equation.Using the point (7,7) and the slope 32, we substitute into the equation:y−7=(32)(x−7)
Check for Simplification: Check the equation for any possible simplification. The equation y−7=32(x−7) is already in the correct form and does not require further simplification.
