Which linear function represents the line given by the point-slope equation y-8= 1/2(x-4)
y - 8 = (1/2)(x - 4)
y - 8 = 0.5x - 0.54
y - 8 = 0.5x - 2
y = 0.5x - 2 + 8
y = 0.5x + 6 is the linear function.
Answer:
\(y=\frac{1}{2}x+6\)
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
the equation of the line into point slope form is equal to
\(y-y1=m(x-x1)\)
In this problem we have
\(y-8=\frac{1}{2}(x-4)\)
The linear function represent a line that
the slope is equal to \(m=\frac{1}{2}\)
and passes through the point \((4,8)\)
Simplify
\(y=\frac{1}{2}x-2+8\)
\(y=\frac{1}{2}x+6\) ------> equation of the line in slope-intercept form
