You use variables for the equation and after you find out the variables you set them equal to each other and see if they are equal
Answer:
m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 -8 - (-5)/1-3
-8 +5/1-3
-3/-2
slope is 1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps :)
Solution:
we have been asked to find the equation of the line that passes through (7, 4) and (4, -2).
First we will find the slope of the line using the formula

Plugin the given values we get

Now using the point slope form of a straight line

Plugin the values

Hence the correct option is a.
what grade math is this? It looks kinda complex...I can see why u asked what graph you shud use...
