Slope equals rise over run
The distance of the points is 4 units down and 2 units right
-4/2 = -2
Slope = -2
4|-7-2| = 4|-9| = 4x9 = 36
Answer:
The equation would be x + 2y = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the standard form of this line, start by using point-slope form with the given information. Then solve for the constant.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y + 3 = -1/2(x + 2)
y + 3 = -1/2x - 1
1/2x + y + 3 = -1
1/2x + y = -4
x + 2y = -8
