What is the equation to (-3,1) and (0,-8)
puteri [66]
The change in x between the two is 3 and the change in y is -9. 
Divide -9 by 3 to get -3 using the rise over run slope formula.  
The equation is y = -8 + -3x because the -8 in the second set of coordinates is the y-intercept of the equation. 
Hope this helps!
