To find slope of two points we will need to use this equation:
( 6 , -12 ) ( 15 , -3 )
Now let's replace the equation with the numbers. (it will be a fraction).
=
The equation equals 9 over 9, which also equals 1.
The slope of the line is 1.
The answer is D. 4x + 3y = -6
I first found the slope using the slope formula. Then I plugged in the values of the given coordinate and the slope I found into the point slope form equation, then I simplified. Then I manipulated the equation to get x and y on the right side, and the constant on the left side. Finally, I multiplied both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction.
