Find the equation of the line through (6,4) and (-3,-8)
alexdok [17]

Answer:

y = 4/3x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the equation of a line with 2 points, we use the slope formula which is:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

we will use (6,4) as x_1[tex] and [tex]y_1 and we will use (-3,-8) as x_2[tex] and [tex]y_2. we plug this into the slope formula:

\frac{-8-4}{-3-6}

-8 - 4 = -12

-3 - 6 = -9

the slope is \frac{-12}{-9}

but we can simplify this further by dividing the fraction by -3

-12 / -3 = 4

-9 / -3 = 3

the simplified version of the slope is \frac{4}{3}

we can write this in slope-intercept form which is y =mx + b, with b being the y intercept and m being the slope

y = 4/3x + b <--- we need to solve for <em>b</em> in order to find the y intercept, so substitute x & y for a point on the line, we can use any point we are given, but for this example i will use (6,4)

4 = 4/3(6) + b < multiply 4/3 x 6

4 = 8 + b < subtract 8 from both sides

-4 = b

our y intercept would be (0,-4)

the equation looks like the following:

y = 4/3x - 4, which is our answer

Find y in the line through (4,y) and (7,2) has a slope of 6
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

The value of y is -16.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing coordinate, we can use the slope equation and plug in all known values.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

6 = (y - 2)/(4 - 7)

6 = (y - 2)/-3

Now we can solve using cross multiplication.

y - 2 = -3*6

y - 2 = -18

y = -16
