Question

A line passes through (8,2) and (11,-13) write the equation of thr line in standerd form

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(8,2),(11,-13)

slope(m) = (-13 - 2) / (11 - 8) = -15/3 = -5

y = mx + b

slope(m) = -5

(8,2)...x = 8 and y = 2

now we sub and find b, the y int

2 = -5(8) + b

2 = -40 + b

2 + 40 = b

42 = b

so ur equation is : y = -5x + 42...now we need it in standard form

Ax + By = C

y = -5x  42

5x + y = 42 <====
