(-2,2)(5,1)
slope(m) = (1 - 2) / (5 - (-2) = -1 / 7
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/7
use either of ur points....(5,1)....x = 5 and y = 1
now sub and find b, the y int
1 = -1/7(5) + b
1 = -5/7 + b
1 + 5/7 = b
7/7 + 5/7 = b
12/7 = b
equation is : y = -1/7x + 12/7....but we need it in standard form...
y = -1/7x + 12/7
1/7x + y = 12/7
x + 7y = 12 <== standard form
Ab+ac=a(b+c) or
ba+ca=a(b+c)
c(m-n)+d(m-n)=(m-n)(c+d)
The slope of the line is 5
The answer is x=3
1x=3 so that means that one x is the same as 3
