This equation is in point-slope form. To change it to standard form, you must distribute -1/2 to (x+4) to get -1/2x-2. Your equation should now be y-8 = -1/2x-2. You should then add 1/2x to both sides (to cancel out -1/2x on the right side). Now, you should have y+1/2x-8 = -2. Finally, add 8 to both sides (to cancel out -8 on the left side) and flip the x and the y to get a final answer of 1/2x+y = 6.
Sure where is the problem
Step-by-step explanation:
you drew already the right things, you have everything.
so, what is the problem ?
the most common form of line equation is
y = ax + b
a is the slope of the line. it is expressed as the ratio
y coordinate change / x coordinate change
when going from one point to the other.
b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).
once we have the slope, we get b by using the coordinates of one of the given points as x and y in the equation and solve for b.
so, for the 2 marked points you showed correctly the differences :
x changes by +8 (from -4 to 4).
y changes by -2 (from 3 to 1).
so the slope is -2/+8 = -1/4
the y-intercept we also see directly in the chart : +2.
