Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line passing through (5, 1) and (-4, 7)

Answer 1

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Answer 2

Standard form is y = mx + b
First determine the slope.

\(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow {Slope = {y_2 - y_1 \over x_2 - x_1}} }\)

Then substitute m with the slope and find b.

Answer 3

where (x1,y1) are a point in the line. You are given two

Answer 4

I agree with ParthKohli i am new so he typed it in faster XD

Answer 5

choose 1 and then find the slope (m) with the given equation from Parthkohli

Answer 6

But it's better to do it from point slope form and then isolate y.

slope-intercept form is sometimes hard to see right away and you are not given the y-int as one of the points

Answer 7

Option A: y=-2/3x+13/3

Option B: y=-2/3x-13/3

Option C: y=2/3x-13/3

Option D: y=2/3x+13/3

Answer 8

Umm you might want give it a try first....we already told you how to do it. Don't be lazy

Answer 9

I tried and got the first answer

Answer 10

is the first answer correct?
