Question

Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (1. - 4) and (-5.4).

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-4/3x-8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1

Finding the slope, 4-(-4)/-5-1 = 8/-6 = -4/3

y=-4/3x + b

Substituting,

-4=-4/3+b

-12/3+4/3=b

b=-8/3

y=-4/3x-8/3
