For this case we must simplify the following expression:
So, if we apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses we have:
We simplify taking into account that:
- Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.
- Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

Answer:
y = 7x - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 3)
m = =
= 7, thus
y = 7x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (2, 4), then
4 = 14 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 14 = - 10
y = 7x - 10 ← equation of line
