Question

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (4, -2) and (8, – 7)?

Answer 1

y = -1.25x + 3

Explanation:

i got it right

Answer 2

y = -1.25x + 3

Explanation:

To see if the coordinate pairs are on this line, plug x into the equation above.

y = -5 + 3

y = -2, so (4, -2) is on that line.

y = -1.25(8) + 3

y = -10 + 3

y = -7, so (8, -7) is also on that line.
