Question

The points (2, 3) and (3, 6) fall on a particular line. What is its equation in slope-intercept

form?

Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

y=3x-3

Explanation:

insert the first point into y=mx+b

3=2m+b

----------------

Do it again with the other point

6=3m+b

-------------

Now put both equations in a system of equations

3=2m+b

6=3m+b

solve for m and b

m=3 and b=-3

y=3x-3

m=slope

b=y-intercept
