Write the equation that passes through the following points:<br><br> (5,0) and (−10,−5)

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The answer is:

$y = \frac{1}{3} x - \frac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

❃Incase you forgot what the linear equation formula is ☟

$y = mx + b$

❃Incase you also forgot, The is what the slope formula is ☟

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1}$

➊ First: We are going to be solving for the slope.

$m = \frac{ - 5 - 0}{ - 10 - 5} = \frac{ - 5}{ - 15} = \frac{1}{3}$

➋Second: We find the y-intercept.

$y = mx + b \\ 0 = \frac{1}{3} (5) + b \\ 0 = \frac{5}{3} + b \\ \frac{ - \frac{5}{3} = - \frac{5}{3 } \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: }{ - \frac{5}{3} = b}$

➌Third: Plug in.

$y = \frac{1}{3} x - \frac{5}{3}$
