Answer:
y = - 3x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 2)
m = =
= - 3, thus
y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (1, 2), then
2 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 3 = 5
y = - 3x + 5 ← equation of line
Answer:You haven't attached a picture but this is what your line should look like
Step-by-step explanation:
For this equation you simply have to graph it.
First, you have to remember that these equations follow a formula: y=mx+b. m is the slope of you line and b is the y-intercept.
Next, you need to graph it. First, graph your b, in this case 2. You would go up 2 on you graph (graph (0,2)). Then, you would graph your slope which is 3.
Now, remember that slope equals y/x, so think of the number 3 being like 3/1. You would start at (0,2) and go up 3 points in the graph, then over 1 point (graph where you end up). You repeat that from each new point you make until you have enough points to create a straight line.
