Answer: y= 3x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a straight line:
y = mx + b ------(i)
Step by Step Solution:
Step 1: Calculating Slope (m).
m =
y2-y1
x2-x1
m =
2--1
1-0
m =
3
1
m = 3
Now putting value of m in equation (i)
y = 3x + b -----(ii)
Step 2: Calculating Y-intercept (b).
Lets choose the first point, (0,-1) for calculating y-intercept:
y = mx + b
-1 = 3(0) + b
-1 = 0 + b
-1 = b
b = -1
Subtract 17from both sides
32-17=x
Simplify 32-17 to 15
X=15
15-27b+11=-244
26-27b=-244
-27b=-270
b=10
