Question

Which equation represents the line that passes through (-8,11) and (4, 7/2)?

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -15/24x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation of the line, you need to start by using the slope formula with the points given. This will give you the slope.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (11 - 7/2)/(-8 - 4)

m = (15/2)/-12

m = 15/-24

m = -15/24

Now that we have the slope, we can use that and either point to find the equation in point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 11 = -15/24(x + 8)

y - 11 = -15/24x - 5

y = -15/24x + 6
