The equation of the line passing through the points is y = x + 2
How to determine the equation?
The points are (-1, 1) and (4, 6).
The slope is calculated using:
m= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
So, we have:
m = (6 - 1)/(4 + 1)
Evaluate
m = 1
The equation of the line is then calculated as:
y = m(x -x1) + y1
This gives
y = 1 *(x + 1) + 1
Evaluate
y = x + 2
Hence, the equation of the line passing through the points is y = x + 2
