Question

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,-1) and (6, 2)?

Put your answer in fully reduced form.

Answer 1

y=1/3x

Explanation:

Find the slope: 2-(-1)

6-(-3)

slope = 1/3

Point Slope Form: y-2= 1/3 (x-6) plug one of the coordinates into the equation

y-2= 1/3x -2

y=1/3x

Answer 2

1/3

Explanation:

(2-(-1))/(6-(-3)) = 3/9 = 1/3
