(1,4) (3,10) what’s the slope, y-intercept and standard form [y=my+b]

Hey there! :)

Given the coordinates (1, 4) & (3, 10), we must find the slope, y-intercept, and standard form.

Keep in mind that in order to find the slope, we must use the slope formula, which is :

(1, 4) is our first set of coordinates while (3, 10) is our second set. Meaning that for 1 = x1, 4 = y1 while 3=x2, 10 = y2

Using this information, simply plug into our slope formula.

m = (10-4) / (3-1)

Simplify/

m = 6/2 --> 3

Therefore, our slope is 3.

Now, use the point-slope form to figure out what the y-intercept is.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Plug in using the above coordinates and our slope, which is 3.

y - 4 = 3(x - 1)

Simplify!

y - 4 = 3x - 3

Add 4 to both sides.

y = 3x + 1

This means that 1 is our y-intercept.

This is also our equation in standard form.

Hope this helped! :)

the central idea is that:

individuals should refuse to cooperate with institutions they believe unjust.

thoreau felt  that governments were more often agents of corruption than justice, even democracies, and that just because the majority feels a certain way does not make it just or correct in absolute terms. he uses the fact that slavery exists in our democracy to support this idea.

he goes on to say that, as a result, people should live true to their own internal laws regarding right and wrong, as a product of reflection and a moral life, rather than following every law that society imposes.
