Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (6, -1) and (12, 2).

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

equation:

y-y/x-x

= -1-2/6-12

= -3/-6

=1/2 is the slope

plug in any one of the coordinates:  (i am choosing the second one) (12 is x; 2 is y)

y=mx+b

2= 1/2(12) + b

2=6 + b

b= 2-6

b= -4

-4 is the y intercept

SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM:

y=1/2x-4
