Question

The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (-9,-2) and (1, 3) is y-3 = 1/2(x-1). What is the
slope-intercept form of the equation for this line?
O y=1/2x+ 2
O y=1/2x-4
O y=1/2x+5/2
O y = 1/2 x - 7/2

Answer 1

Answer:

the third option

Step-by-step explanation:

to find this answer, we can simplify the point-slope form

$y - 3 = \frac{1}{2}(x-1)\\ y = \frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}+3\\ y = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{1}{2}+\frac{6}{2} \\ y = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{5}{2}$
