write an equation of the line that passes through the given points.
(2,-4),(0,-4)

Question

anonymous · Answer

Find the slope 
Slope=y2−y1x2−x1
 and then use the slope and one of the given points and use the point-slope formula to get the equation of the line. 
y−y1=m(x−x1)

IS THAT THE ANSWER? I WANT THE ANSWER?

anonymous · Answer

It's an explanation of how you can find the answer.  What's the first step, then?

anonymous · Answer

???

anonymous · Answer

Start out computing the slope.  Slope=(y2−y1)/(x2−x1)

anonymous · Answer

okae NEXT?

anonymous · Answer

The slope is called 'm'.  then use the slope and one of the given points and use the point-slope formula to get the equation of the line. 
y−y1=m(x−x1)
