<span>1/3 is equivalent to a decimal that does not terminate.
A terminating decimal is one that ends. Some decimals never end, however. If you divide 1 by 3 using the standard algorithm, you will get 0.333333... repeating forever. This is a non-terminating decimal, or repeating decimal.
In contrast, 1/4 is equal to 0.25, which is a terminal decimal.</span>
Use the slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1
3-(-7)/1-(-1) = 10/2 = 5
To find the y-intercept:
y=5x+b
3=5(1)+b
3 = 5+b
-5 -5
-2=b
The equation of the line that passes through (-1,-7) and (1,3) is
y=5x-2
