# Graph the line containing the point P and having slope m. $P\left(2,1\right),m=4$

The graph is

See the step by step solution

## Step 1. Given Information

The given point is $P\left(2,1\right)$ and slope is 4.

## Step 2. Explanation and Graph

We know that slope is 4 or $\frac{4}{1}$.

Since, $m=\frac{rise}{run}$that is for every horizontal movement of 1 unit to the right there will be a vertical movement of 4 units.

Start from point $P\left(2,1\right)$ and move 1 unit to the right and then 4 units up to get the second point that is $Q\left(3,5\right)$

Draw a line passing through both the points.
