Question

write the slope intercept form of the equation of the line through (4,-2) and (5,1)

Answer 1

Answer:

y=(3/1)x

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

to find the slope you need to (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) meaning.

(1-(-2))/(5-4) which is = 3/1 and that is m

b is not given there fore it's 0.

the answer is y=(3/1)x

hope that helped!

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 3x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

a way to find slope with two points is using the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 idk what its called but thats what it would look like

we plug in the numbers for each

1-(-2)/5-4 = 3/1 = 3 which is the slope

to find the y-intercept

you can use the coordinate (5,1) and continue going to whatever the y-intercept would be

which is -14

(0,-14)
