Question

Find the equation of the line containing the given pair of points.

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y=
These are the point (-7,-2) (-3,-1)

Answer 1

x-4y=1 is the equation of the line.

Answer 2

So that is what y=?

Answer 3

y=1/4 x -1/4

Answer 4

y=mx=b are you using that formula?

Answer 5

y=mx+b is what I meant!

Answer 6

I think he used m=(-2-(-1))/(-7-(-3))
m=-1/-4=1/4

Answer 7

m=1/4 and the b = -1/4

Answer 8

so, the equation is y = 1/4 x - 1/4

Answer 9

Collegegirl did you unders stand how redepsilon got the slope from those two points?

Answer 10

\[m=\Delta y/\Delta x\]
