Question

Find the equation in standard form which passes through (-2, -7) and (1, -1). You must show all work

Answer 1

do you know how to find the slope?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

Ok once you do find the slope just plug it in to the point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

where:
m=slope
(x1,y1) -any point at the given line.

Answer 4

From there you can leave it as it is or solve it for y
in order to get y-int form.
