Question

Given the points (5, 5) and (3, 7), write a linear equation that contains both in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

y= - x + 10

Explanation:

Answer 2

First find slope
(7-5)/(3-5) = 2/-2 = -1
Slope intercept: y = mx + b
Y = -1x + b, plug in point
5 = -1(5) + b, b = 10
Equation: y = -1x + 10
