Question

10 points. Plz help. What is the equation for the line that passes through (5, -3) and (2, 3) on a graph

Answer 1

Slope formula = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1
SF = 3 - (-3)/ 2 - 5
SF = 6/ -3
Slope = -2

Now we need to find b (the y-intercept)
y = mx + b
y = -2x + b
3 = -2(2) + b
3 = -4 + b
+4 +4
7 = b

The equation of the line should be:
y = -2x + 7
