Find the equation in standard form which passes through (3, –6) and (–2, –1). You must show all work.

Question

anonymous · Answer

do you know how to find slope?

anonymous · Answer

$$m = \frac{ y_2 - y_1 }{ x_2-x_1 }$$

anonymous · Answer

standard form:$$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)$$

anonymous · Answer

ya i know that.. but ive been working on this for an hour now and i need the answer!

anonymous · Answer

this problem should not take an hour to solve. simply plug in the points that you are given into the equation

anonymous · Answer

my test is due by 11

anonymous · Answer

i do not condone cheating on tests

anonymous · Answer

its homework my bad

anonymous · Answer

ha yeah

anonymous · Answer

seriously though, just plug in the points that were given to you

anonymous · Answer

ok do i plug them in for the standard form or the other one?

anonymous · Answer

well you have to find what the slope (m) is first

then plug 1 set of points into the standard form

anonymous · Answer

or both?
