Question

write the equation of the line passing through the points (-2, 8) and (-8, 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is y = x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

$y - 8 = 1(x + 2) \\ y = x + 2 + 8 \\ y = x + 10$

$m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{8 - 2}{ - 2 - ( - 8)} = \frac{6}{6} = 1$

$y - y0 = m(x - x0)$
