Question

Which is the equation to the line passing through points (2, –7) and (5, –1)

Answer 1

use the formula :
(y-y1)/(y2-y1) = (x-x1)/(x2-x1)

Answer 2

use the formula @RadEn gave you to find the slope of your line first.

Answer 3

y = 2x – 8

y = – 2x + 9

y = 2x – 11

y = – 2x + 6

Answer 4

@Brittni0605 those are the answers i think its A

Answer 5

No, its not A.

Answer 6

then at @Brittni0605 what is it?

Answer 7

Show me work for finding the slope of your line given the two points in your problem

Answer 8

dont know how to

Answer 9

Understand?

Answer 10

somewhat so does that mean that the answer would be c ?

Answer 11

It means the answer could be A or C.

Answer 12

But since I already told you its not A, you know its C.

Answer 13

i asked u last time if it was A & you told me no its not

Answer 14

thanks alot

Answer 15

I said its not A. But based on just slope, your choices were narrowed down to A or C. To determine if it was A or C, you needed to find the b value in the equation y=mx+b
