Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through each pair of points in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

First, you need to use the points to come up with a m (slope). To do this you must use the equation m= y2-y1/x2-x1. label the x in one pair of coordinates x1 and the y, y1. Then label the other x in the other pair of coordinates x2 and the y, y2. use the equation and figure the slope. Next, put the easiest coordinates into point-slope form. The equation you are to use is... y-y1=m(x-x1). Input the values and then distribute the m inside the parenthesis. Then you should be able to do the rest. The final product should be in slope-intercept form.
