Answer:

y=3/4x+1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form: y=mx+b

find the slope with y2-y1/x2-x1: (-4-5)/(-6-6)= 3/4

substitute one of the coordinates in the equation with the slope: 5=3/4(6)+b

solve to find b:

b=1/2

substitute in the equation:

y=3/4x+1/2

So... We distribute so that... 7 * 2 = 14 7 * i = 7i then -3i * 2 = -6i -3i * -i = 3i?
then combine like terms... 7i - 6i + 3i = 4i so 14 + 4i?
