Answer:
b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = C(1, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D(4, - 3)
m = =
= - 2, hence
y = - 2x + b ← is the partial equation of the line
To find b substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (1, 3), then
3 = - 2 + b ⇒ b = 3 + 2 = 5
