Hi!
We can use <u>point-slope form </u>to solve this.
<em> and </em>
<em> will be from one of the points.</em>
<u>First, we have to find </u><u>, the slope. We can use the slope equation to get this.</u>
<em>Plug in your points:</em>
Your slope is
<u><em>Now plug points and slope into point-slope equation. We will use (8, 4).</em></u>
Now, if you want to get it into y = mx + b form, you have to solve for y:
Your equation is
