Question 3 • GA-8th Grade Mathematics

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of 1 and passes through point (5, 3)?

Answer
A
y = x – 2
B
y = x + 2
C
y = x + 3
D
y = x – 5

Explanation

A line with slope 1 has the form y = x + b. Substitute the point (5, 3): 3 = 5 + b, so b = −2. Therefore, the equation is y = x − 2, choice A.
