Answer:
the answer is Y=(6/17)X + (285/17)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Identify the X and Y coordinate of each point.
for example, the first point could be (12,21), therefore X1 = 12 and Y1 = 21 and the second point is then (46,33), therefore X2 = 46 and Y2 = 33
2. to find the equation of the line it is necessary to find the slope.
knowing that the equiation of the slope is M = Y2-Y1/X2-X1 we replace
and then we simplify the result to
3. Using the Point-slope equation which is Y-Y1=M(X-X1) we replace
