Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that goes through the points: (2, 4) and (7, -1) *

avanturin [10]

Answer:

1. slanting upward because the slope is positive one.

2. A: 3/4 B: 4/-3

3. A: 3 B: y=3x-10

1. (-2-7)/(-4-5) = -9/-9 = 1

2. A: (7-4)/(7-3) = 3/4

B: (8-0)/(-6-0) = 8/-6 = 4/-3

3. find the slope first so (4-1)/(2-1)= 3/1. then you plug in point C to find the y intercept so y=mx+b would be 2=3(4)+b which makes it so b is -10. the new equation would be y=3x-10
