Question

The point A (-3, 5) and the point B (0, -16) lie on the line L.
a) Find the slope
b) Find the y-intercept
c) Create the equation of the line L.
Can you help? ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the point A (-3, 5) and the point B (0, -16)

a) Slope (m) = (-16 - 5)/(0+3) = - 21/3 = - 7

b) y - intercept (b) = - 16

c) Equation of line

y = mx + b

y = - 7x + (-16)

y = - 7x - 16
