Question

Given a line passing through points (x,2) and (1, -4) with slope of 6, find the value of x:

Answer 1

Answer:

line : y = 6x - 10

value of x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find line equation,

y = mx + b

m=6 , b = -4 - 6 = -10

y = 6x - 10

to find y,

2 = 6x - 10

2 + 10 = 6x

     12 = 6x

  12/6 = x

       2 = x

       x = 2
