A line passes through the points (6,-6) and (9,-5). What is it’s equation in point slope form?

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{3}x-8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form of an equation is written as $y=mx+b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

The slope of a line that passes through the points $(x_1,\: y_1)$ and $(x_2, \: y_2)$ is $m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . Using the coordinates $(6,-6)$ and $(9,-5)$ as given in the problem, we have slope of this line to be:
