Question

Write an equation of the line, in point-slope form, that passes through the two given points.

points: (–17, 8), (3, —2)

Answer 1

Answer 2

point slope form looks like
\[y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\] so you can ignore the A and D
now we need the slope

Answer 3

\[\frac{8+2}{-17-3}=\frac{10}{-20}=-\frac{1}{2}\] is your slope

Answer 4

i think B

Answer 5

so it is the one that looks like
\[y-8=-\frac{1}{2}(x+17)\]

Answer 6

right

Answer 7

yes B will do it
