Which can be the first step in finding the equation of the line that passes through the points (5, negative 4) and (negative 1,

8) in slope-intercept form? Calculate StartFraction 8 minus (negative 4) Over negative 1 minus 5 EndFraction = StartFraction 12 Over negative 6 EndFraction = negative 2.. Calculate StartFraction negative 1 minus 5 Over 8 minus (negative 4) EndFraction = StartFraction negative 6 Over 12 EndFraction = negative one-half.. Find that the point at which the line intersects with the line y = 0 is (3, 0). Find that the point at which the line intersects with the line x = y is (2, 2)
