Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope-intercept formula: where m is slope and b the y-intercept.
Use the slope formula for when you have two points:
Rise over run is the change in the y-axis over the change in the x-axis. Insert values:
Simplify parentheses (negative+negative=positive)
Simplify
2 is the slope:
Now use one of the points to find the y-intercept by substituting the x and y values into the equation. Solve for b:
(4,7)
The y-intercept is -1. Insert into the equation. Change the + symbol to -:
Done.
The equation of a line starting from two points is:
From the first point you get: x1 = -1, y1 = -2
From the second point you get: x2 = 3, y2 = 10
Replace x1, y1, x2, y2 in the equation of the line and you get:
From this you get the equation of your line:
From the first point you get: x1 = -1, y1 = -2
From the second point you get: x2 = 3, y2 = 10
Replace x1, y1, x2, y2 in the equation of the line and you get:
From this you get the equation of your line:
