Question

What is the equation in slope-intercept form that passes through the points (-3,4) and (3,2).

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -1/3x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope, m, is equal to the rise over the run

m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

m = (2-4) / (3+3)

m = -2/6 = -1/3

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

y-4 = -1/3(x+3)

y -4 = -1/3x - 1

y = -1/3x -1 +4

y = -1/3x + 3
