Part 1: Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (–1, –4) and (2, 5) in point-slope form.

Part 2: Using complete sentences, explain whether or not it matters which point is used in the final answer. Also explain why you chose the point you did.

Question

Part 1: Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (–1, –4) and (2, 5) in point-slope form. 

Part 2: Using complete sentences, explain whether or not it matters which point is used in the final answer. Also explain why you chose the point you did.

Well, do it!  You will need a slope.

Note: Part 2 is quite misleading.  Both points are used in the final answer or there would be no final answer other than "Sorry, it takes two points to determine a line".
