Question

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (-12,-24) and (15,48). Write your answer in the y=mx+b form

Answer 1

find the salope
\[\Large m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{48-(-24)}{15-(-12)}=\frac{72}{27}\]
then you point slope form
\[\Large y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})\]
where
m=72/27
y1=48
x1=15

use these values in the above equation to get the required equation of lines
