Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form
of a line going through the following
points.
(4, 5) and (-3, 10)

Answer 1

Answer:

y = mx + b

m = Slope =  (Y2 -Y1) ÷ (X2 -X1)

Slope = (10 -5) ÷ (-3 -4)

Slope = 5 ÷ -7  = -5/7 =m

b = y - mx

Let's take one of the 2 given points (4, 5) and input into b = y - mx

b = 5 - (-5/7  * 4)

b = 5 + 20/7

b = 7 +(6/7)

So, the equation is :

y = -(5/7)x + 7 +(6/7)
