You can write the equation in point-slope form, which has the format <em>y-y</em>subscript1=<em>m</em>(<em>x-x</em>subscript1), with <em>y</em>subscript1 and <em>x</em>subscript1 being the y and x coordinates for a point on the line, and <em>m</em> being the slope. </span>
<span /><span>Substitute a y and x coordinate into the equation so you have <em>y</em>-6=<em>m</em>(<em>x</em>-2)</span>
<span /><span><span>Then find the slope so you can replace <em>m</em>. The slope formula is <em />(<em>y</em>subscript2-<em>y</em>subscript1)/(<em>x</em>subscript2-<em>x</em>subscript1). </span><span>Substitute the coordinates in so you have <em>m</em>=(16-6)/(4-2), which simplifies to 10/2 and then 5.</span></span>
<span><span /></span><span>Now the equation is <em>y</em>-6=5(<em>x</em>-2)</span>
<span />If you want a different form, for example slope-intercept form, you can change it to that:
<span><em>y</em>-6=5(<em>x</em>-2)</span>
<span><em>y</em>=5x-4</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
if there is nothing missing, we have
x + 25/-8 = -6
in order to compare or add or subtract fractions, we need to bring them all to the same denominator (bottom part).
remember, integer numbers are fractions too. like here
-6 = -6/1
25/-8 = -25/8
so, how can we bring -6/1 to .../8 ?
by multiplying 1 by 8.
but we cannot multiply only the denominator by 8. otherwise we would suddenly have
-6/8
and is -6/8 = -6/1 ? no, certainly not.
to keep the original value of the fraction we have to do the same multiplication also with the numerator (top part).
so, we actually do
-6/1 × 8/8 = -48/8
with this little trick we have now .../8 to operate with, and our transformed fraction has still the same value
-6/1 = -48/8 indeed.
so, we have
x + -25/8 = -48/8
x - 25/8 = -48/8
x = -48/8 + 25/8 = -23/8
