Question

Part a.) Find the slope of the line that contains the points, (1, 2) and (2, 5).

Part b.) Using the slope that you found in part a and one of the given points, write the equation of the line. Please write your final answer in slope-intercept form.

Answer 1

do you know the slope formula?

Answer 2

sorta.. i forgot

Answer 3

what would the equation look like after you substitute the x's and y's?

Answer 4

2-5 / 2-1

Answer 5

(2-5)/(1-2)

when you decide which coordinate pair will be "1" and "2" you gotta keep it like that

Answer 6

so what's our slope?

Answer 7

idk ? im confused now

Answer 8

what's 2 - 5?

Answer 9

-3

Answer 10

and what's 1 - 2?

Answer 11

-1

Answer 12

right, so what's -3/-1?

Answer 13

3

Answer 14

exactly, so our slope is 3

Answer 15

do you understand how we got that?

Answer 16

sorta can u just explain it in simplier terms
