Question

given the points (0, -1) and (-9, 8) and on a line find its equation in the form y=mx+b

Answer 1

Answer:

Find the slope & then plug in

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slopes of the two points

Then plug in one of the coordinates into the equation along with the slope to get the value of B

Answer 2

Answer:

y= -x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope =

$\frac{-1-8}{0-(-9)} = \frac{-9}{9} = -1$

y-intercept: (0,-1)
