Point slope form equation: y-y1=m(x-x1)

Step 1: plug in the x and y values- y-9=m(x-8)
Step 2: plug in the slope, then you have your answer- y-9=3(x-8)

The equation of a line passing through the point (8, 9) with a slope of 3 is y = 3x - 15.

What is the equation of a line passing through two given points in 2-dimensional plane?

Suppose the given points are [tex](x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2),[/tex]

then the equation of the straight line joining both two points is given by

[tex](y - y_1) = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} (x -x_1)[/tex]

We have been given a line passing through the point (8, 9) with a slope of 3.

then the equation of the straight line joining both two points is given by

[tex](y - y_1) = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} (x -x_1)[/tex]

Its slope would be:

[tex]m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

m = 3

Therefore, the equation of the straight line

[tex](y - 9) = 3 (x -8)\\\\y - 9 = 3x - 24\\\\y = 3x -15[/tex]

Hence, the equation of a line passing through the point (8, 9) with a slope of 3 is y = 3x - 15.
