Question

Use slope formula,, to find the slope of a line that passes through the points (–3, 8) and (4, –6).

Answer 1

Answer:

m=-2

b=2  

Equation in Slope-Intercept Form: y= -2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Slope Formula: 8-(-6)    14
                         ------- = ----- = -2
                         -3-4       -7
m= -2
 
Point-Slope Formula: y-8=-2(x-(-3))
                                  y-8=-2x-6
                                  y=-2x+2
b=2

Equation in Slope-Intercept Form: y= -2x+2
