(20 pts) How would I graph a slope that passes through a certain point? Is there a certain equation that could help me? Say for example I want to graph [tex]y=x/4[/tex] but have it pass through [tex](-1, -1/3)[/tex]

Answer:

Use point-slope form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us say (x1, y1) are the coordinates you want to pass through and m is the slope, you would right it like this:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

In this case, the slope is 1/4 and it passes through (-1, -1/3)

y+1/3=1/4(x+1)

If you want to simplify this, you get

y=x-1/12
