lol first it was systems now it's equations of a line. your lessons are inconsistent =))
anyway.. use the two-point formula
\[y - y_1 = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} (x- x_1)\]
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
i assume you know how to use it yes?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so its -2 and 2/2??
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
what is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
if you plug it in and do the solving? because 3-5 =-2 and 4/2=2? correct

you went a bit inconsistent there
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
2
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
that's your x1
what's the y coordinate of the first ordered pair?

that's y1
what's the x coordinate of the second ordered pair?

4
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
that's x2
and the y coordinate of teh second ordered pair is?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
now you have y2
