Question

Find the equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,-5) and (-3,-4). Leave your answer in the form y=mx+c

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -1/2x - 11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-4 - (-5) / -3 - (-1)

1/ -2

= -1/2

y = -1/2x + b

-5 = -1/2(-1) + b

-5 = 1/2 + b

-11/2 = b
