Question

What is an equation
of the line that passes through the points (-8, 0) and (8, 4)?

Answer 1

y=1/4x+2

Explanation:

First, find the slope

0-4/-8-8=-4/-16=1/4

The slope is 1/4.

Now you find the y intercept.

y=1/4x+b

4=1/4(8)+b

4=2+b

Subtract 2 from both sides

2=b

The full equation is y=1/4x+2
