The slope is [ 8 - (-1) ] / [ -1 - (-4) ] = 9 / 3 = 3;
The line has the equation: y - 8 = 3( x + 1);
y - 8 = 3x + 3;
y = 3x + 11.
Answer:
y = -x + 2.
or
x + y - 2 = 0 (Standard form).
Step-by-step explanation:
Its slope (m) is -1 and y intercept (c) is at y = 2.
y = mx + c
So it's:
y = -1x + 2
Standard form is:
x + y - 2 = 0.
I'm not sure what you mean by General Form.
