Question

Write an equation for the line that passes through the two points: (4,3), (6, -3)

Answer 1

Answer:

y= -3x+15.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we first need to calculate the slope of the equation:

m= $\frac{-3-3}{6-4}$ m= $\frac{-6}{2}$ m= -3.

Now, we can simply plug in our slope value into our line equation (y= mx+b) with one of the point listed to find our b value.

3= -3(4)+b

3= -12+b

15=b

Finally, the equation we get is:

y= -3x+15
