Question

Line p goes through two points(-2,6) and (4, -3). What is the equation of line p?

Answer 1

Answer:

y = (-3/2)x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the slope of line p

(-3-6)/(4--2) = -9/6 = -3/2

slope of line p is (-3/2)

slope intercept form

y = (-3/2)x + b

input x and y values to find b

6 = (-3/2)(-2) + b

6 = (3) + b

b = 3

final equation in slope intercept form: y = (-3/2)x + 3
