Question

(1,4) and (-2,-11) are on a line. Find the equation of the line.​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = 5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets use the slope formula to get the slope of the line.

$m =\frac{4-(-11)}{1-(-2)}\\\\m = 5$

Now that we know the slope is five, we can use the point slope formula and then we can solve for y.

$y-4 = 5(x-1)\\y = 5x - 1$
