Answer:
The answer to your question is y = 4/3x + 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Point A = (2, 3)
Point B = (5, 7)
Process
1.- Calculate the slope
x1 = 2 y1 = 3
x2 = 5 y2 = 7
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
- Substitution
m = (7 - 3)/(5 - 2)
- Slope
m = 4/3
2.- Find the equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = 4/3(x - 2)
y - 3 = 4/3x - 8/3
y = 4/3x - 8/3 + 3
y = 4/3x - 8/3 + 9/3
y = 4/3x + 1/3
To write this equation in simplest form, we simply need to combine all like terms. The like terms in this particular expression are the terms with an n-variable and the terms with no variable. So we can combine them to simplify our expression.
5n - 6 + n - 1
First step, we can reorder our terms so that like terms are near each other
5n + n - 6 - 1
Now we can combine easily
(5n + n) - (6 - 1)
6n - 5
And that is your simplified expression.
5n - 6 + n - 1 in simplest form is 6n - 5.
