Find the slope of the line that contains the points (1, − 5) and has the same y − intercept as
Answer to Problem 19STP
Slope: 4; Option D is correct.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The point (1, − 5) and an equation
Concept Used:
Slope and intercept form of an equation is:
Calculation:
Slope and intercept form of an equation is:
Convert the equation into
Slope and intercept of the equation
Now we need to find an equation which contains the points (1, − 5) and has the same y − intercept as
Y − Intercept point is (0, − 9) and the other point is (1, − 5)
Find the slope of the line with two points (0, − 9) and the other point is (1, − 5)
Slope = 4. Option D is correct.
Thus, the slope is 4. Option D is correct.
