Question

Can you help meee get this ?

Answer 1

Answer: y=4/5x-2 or y=4/5x+(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b.

To find the slope, we can use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ and plugging in the points given.

$m=\frac{6-2}{10-5} =\frac{4}{5}$

We know our slope is 4/5. We can plug this into our slope-intercept form and then plug in a point to find b, y-intercept.

$y=\frac{4}{5} x+b$

$2=\frac{4}{5}(5)+b$

$2=4+b$

$b=-2$

We know the y-intercept is -2.

THe final equation is y=4/5x-2 or y=4/5x+(-2).
