Question

Write an equation for the line in slope- intercept form points are:-2,-2-1,10,4​

Answer 1

Answer:

y=3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is written as y=mx+b

m = the slope

slope is rise over run or (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). We need to choose which y value is y2 and the corresponding x value is the x2. If -2 is y2, then:

x2 = -2

y1 = 1

x1 = -1

then plug in the values.

(-2-1)/(-2-(-1))

-3/-1 = 3

m =3

then plug in values for the first equation. you can use any point on the line.

y = 3x+b

4 = 3*0 +b

4=0+b

b = 4

then write it with out x or y

y = 3x+4
