What is the equation of the following line written in general form?
y - x + 1 = 0
x - y + 1 = 0
-x - y + 1 = 0

Answer:
[tex]x-y+1=0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of the line , use the points from the graph of the line
(1,2) and (4,5)
First frame equation of the line [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
[tex]slope (m)=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{5-2}{4-1} =1[/tex]
m=1, (1,2)
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
[tex]2=1(1)+b[/tex]
b=1
So equation of the line is
[tex]y=1x+1[/tex]
General form is Ax+By+C=0
Subtract 1x from both sides
[tex]y=1x+1[/tex]
[tex]-1x+y=1[/tex], subtract 1 from both sides
[tex]-1x+y-1=0[/tex]
Divide whole equation by -1
[tex]x-y+1=0[/tex]
