Question

How do you write the equation of a line given two points?

Answer 1

find the slope and apply the point-slope form of the equation

Answer 2

y=mx+b

Answer 3

thank you

Answer 4

there are many different forms of a line equation, so without being specific as to form; any of them can be applied :)

Answer 5

generally you can use (y-y1)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)* (x-x1)....if two points are given

Answer 6

for people who like filling in formulas, this would suffice as well :)
\[y=\frac{y_o-y_1}{x_o-x_1}x-\frac{y_o-y_1}{x_o-x_1}x_o+y_0\]

Answer 7

thank you so much
