Practice Questions: Equation of straight line
1. Find the equation of the line that passes through the point (5, -4) with slope –2.
2. Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-1, 0) and has slope 2.
3. Find the equation of the line passing through the points (3, 3) and (-3, 7).
4. Determine the equation of the line whose y-intercept is 5 and whose slope is 2.
5. Write the equation of the line that passes through (-2, -1) and (3, 9).
6. Convert the equation 4x + 2y = 8 into slope-intercept form (i.e., y = mx + c), then
identify its slope and y-intercept.
7. Find the equation of the line that is horizontal and passes through (1, 9).
8. Find the equation of the line that is vertical and passes through (4, -2).
9. A line has x-intercept 4 and y-intercept –3. Write its equation in intercept form.
10. Write the equation of the line that passes through (2, –3) and is parallel to the line y
= 4x + 1.
