Question

Which equation represents the line that passes through
the points (-7, 1) and (5, -5)?

Answer 1

Answer; y= -x/2 -5/2 OR

2y= -x-5 or

2y +x +5 =0

Explanation:

To solve this question, you first find the gradient. For this question the gradient is -1/2. After that, you take one of the points and fix it into this equation: y -y^1 = m(x -x^1).

m =gradient or slope of the line.
