First we find the slope between the two given points.
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-5 - 2)/(7 - 6) = -7/1 = -7
Now we use the slope-intercept equation of a line.
y = mx + b
We use one point as x and y, and we solve for b.
2 = -7(6) + b
2 = -42 + b
b = 44
The equation is
y = -7x + 44
Answer: f(x) = -7x + 44
We have the vertex (-4, -1), therefore we have:
x = 9
Since M is the midpoint of XY:
XM = MY
XM = 2x + 11
MY = 5x - 16
2x + 11 = 5x - 16
5x - 2x = 11 + 16
3x = 27
x = 27/3
x = 8
