Step-by-step explanation:
First, given that we must use point slope form, we can define that as
y - y₁ = m (x-x₁), with m being the slope .
To find the slope, we can use the equation
[tex]\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]. Two points on the graph are (0, 1) and (1, 3). For these points, when calculating the slope, 0 and 1 represent x₁ and y₁ respectively, while 1 and 3 represent x₂ and y₂ respectively Using this formula, we can plug our points in to get
[tex]\frac{3-1}{1-0} = 2/1 = 2[/tex]
as our slope. Therefore, our equation is
y - y₁ = 2 (x-x₁).
For our first point, (0,1), we can simply plug 0 in for x₁ and 1 in for y₁ to get
y - 1 = 2(x-0) as one equation
Next, for (1,3) we can plug 1 for x₁ and 3 for y₁ to get
y - 3 = 2 (x-1) as our other equation
