Answer:

there are several ways to write, and find slope...see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Way 1: slope Intercept- y=mx+b

step 1: find where the line crosses the Y axis(the one running up and down...thats is your "b" so if the line crosses at -2...it would be this: y=mx-2

Step 2:from the point where the line crosses the Y axis, count how many up/down and Left/right to the next point..so if you go up 2 right 1, it would look like this y=2x-2

Up=positive

down=negative

left=negative

right=positive

From the trigonometry:

tan θ = (sin θ) / (cos θ)
cot θ = (cos θ) / (sin θ)

∴ tan θ + cot θ = (sin θ) / (cos θ) + (cos θ) / (sin θ)
= [ sin² θ + cos² θ]/( sin θ cos θ) = 1 /( sin θ cos θ )

note : sin² θ + cos² θ = 1

Can you help meee get this ?

Answer: y=4/5x-2 or y=4/5x+(-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b.

To find the slope, we can use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ and plugging in the points given.
