Question

can anyone tell me if I worked this problem right and got the right answer. I got 2 answers though. the problem is through (2,-4) and (0,-7) find slope intercept, I got y=3/2x-7 and y=6/7x-7. did I do the problem right

Answer 1

@Zelda when u get a chance please return to my question

Answer 2

Well, let's go though it and check :D

Slope = m = (-7-(-4))/0-2 = -7+4/-2 = -3/-2 = 3/2

We have m! Yay!

now, we'll choose one of the two points, so the second one say (0,-7).
Equation in point slope is: y=mx+b

We have m,x,y solve for b

So we do:

-7 = (3/2) * 0 +b
-7 = b.

So we have b now too, yay :D

Now just put it in final equation:

\[y=\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }x-7\]

So the first equation is right :D

Answer 3

I am so glad. thank you so much. I am understanding these problems better and better. YAYYYYYY
