Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through (-3,-4) and (2,5) in general form.

Answer 1

Start by calculating the slope :

Y^2-y^2/x^2-x^1

Slope = 1.8 or 9/5

Plug it back in using this formula :

y = mx+b

Choose your points

I chose (2,5)

5 = 9/5(2) +b

B= 7/5

Here’s equation of the line based on the points you provided :

y = 9/5x + 7/5
