Question

write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line passing through each pair of points. (-4,-2) and (2,3)​

Answer 1

y = 5/6x +4/3

Explanation:

The 2-point form of the equation for a line is a useful place to start.

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

y = (3 -(-2))/(2 -(-4))(x -(-4)) -2

y = 5/6(x +4) -2

y = 5/6x +20/6 -12/6

y = 5/6x +4/3
