Answer:
y=2x−1
Explanation:
First, we need to determine the slope of the line. The formula for determining the slope of a line is:
m=y2−y1x2−x1
where m is the slope and the x and y terms are for the points:
(x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
For this problem the slope is:
m=3−−12−0
m=3+12m=42m=2
Now, selecting one of the points we can use the point slope formula to find the equation.
The point slope formula is:
y−y 1=m(x−x1)
Substituting one of our points gives:
y−1=2(x−0)y+1=2x
Solving for y
to put this in standard form gives:
y+1−1=2x−1
y+0=2x−1
y=2x−1
