Question

PLEASE, I AM DESPERATE! CAN ANYONE, HELP ME WITH MY MATH!

Write the standard form of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer.

1.) (6, 1) and (5, 4)

2.) (7, -3) and (4, -8)

3.) (-8, 0) and (1, 5)

Answer 1

(6,1)&(5,4)
(7,-3)&(4,-8)
(-8,0)&(1,5)
Basically, you are to find the line that passes through 2 points.
Equation: y2-y1=m(x2-x1)
• x1: 6, x2: 5, y1: 1, y2: 4
(4-1)/(5-6)=m
m=3/-1
m=-3
Hence, m= -3x10^0

• x1: 7, x2: 4, y1: -3, y2: -8
(-8--3)/(4-7)=m
m=(-8+3)/-3
m=-5/-3
m=5/3
m=1.66666667
Hence, m=1.6667x10^0

• x1: -8, x2: 1, y1: 0, y2: 5
(5-0)/(1--8)=m
m=5/(1+8)
m=5/9
m=0.55555556
Hence, m=5.56x10^-1

Hope this helps!
