Question

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (7, 6) and (-2, -3)?

Answer 1

Answer:

y=1x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b is the equation to find the y intercept, here our line is linear and intercepts on point -1 on a graph, so now we know what our b is. Next, you want to see what the slope (mx) is. x is automatically assumed to be one, so you move your point one to the right (because it is positive) then you figure out how far up until it touches another point, in this case going from (-1,0) moving up one and right one brings you to (0,1) and you continue moving up or down that slope to your points.

Answer 2

Answer:

y=x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

first determine the slope m

then plug in the values given

in the format of y= mx+ b and solve

for b
