Question

Write an equation of the line that passes through (0, −2) and (4, 10).

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points

( 0 , -2) and ( 4 ,10)

Slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= ( 10 + 2) / ( 4-0)

= 12 / 4

= 3

Now the equation of line is

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y + 2 = 3 ( x - 0)

y + 2 = 3x

3x - y = 2
