TABLE OF CONTENTS

Step 1. Given Information

The given point is $P (1, 2)$ and slope 3.

Step 2. Explanation and Graph

We know that slope is 3 or $\frac{3}{1}$ .

Since, $m = \frac{R i s e}{R u n}$ that is for every horizontal movement of 1 unit to the right there will be a vertical movement of 3 units.

Start from point $P (1, 2)$ and move 1 unit to the right and then 3 units up to get the second point that is $Q (2, 5)$ .

Draw a line passing through both the points.

Most popular questions for Math Textbooks

Find the distance $d (P_{1}, P_{2})$ between the points $P_{1} and P_{2}$ .

$P_{1} = (a, b); P_{2} = (0, 0)$

Plot each pair of points and determine the slope of the line containing them. Graph the line by hand.

$(- 1, 1); (2, 3)$

Tell whether the given points are on the graph of the equation.

$Equation : y = x^{4} - \sqrt{x} Points : (0, 0); (1, 1); (- 1, 0)$

True or False The midpoint of a line segment is found by averaging the x-coordinates and averaging the y-coordinates of the endpoints.

True or False The distance between two points is sometimes a negative number.
