Question

How do you find the equation of a line that goes through 2 points?

Answer 1

first find the slope using
\[m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\] then use the almighty point slope formula via
\[y=y_1=m(x-x_1)\]

Answer 2

hello polpak!

Answer 3

First find the slope of the line using the slope formula:

\[Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\]

Where (x1, y1) and (x2,y2) are your two points. Then take that slope and plug it in for m along with the x,y values from one of your points into the point-slope formula:
\[y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\]
