Question

In two or more complete sentences describe the process in writing the equation of a line given two points?

Answer 1

Answer:

First, we have to find slope. We do that by using slope formula. Once we have found slope, we have start to write our equation in slope-intercept form. To get the complete equation, we need to find the y-intercept. To do so, we simply plug in one of the coordinates given to us into our half-formed equation. We should be able to find the y-intercept and then have our complete linear equation once we write it all out.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula: $m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$
