Talia wants to write the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form. These are the steps she plans to use: Step 1: Choose a point on the line, such as (2, 5). Step 2: Choose another point on the line, such as (1, 3). Step 3: Count units to determine the slope ratio. The line runs 1 unit to the right and rises 2 units up, so the slope is 1/2 Step 4: Substitute those values into the point-slope form. y - y1 = m(x - x1) y - 3 = (x - 1) Which of Talia's steps is incorrect?
Step 3 is incorrect because it shows an incorrect ratio for the slope.
