Question

Write an equation in slope intercept form of the line passing through (4,1) and (5-1)

Answer 1

first you need to find the slope using formula

y2 - y1
-------
x2 - x1

Answer 2

i knew you would put that ha

Answer 3

I see you got me

Answer 4

ok is it y=-4x+1?

Answer 5

....

Answer 6

lets find the slope
1 2
x,y x,y
you have points (4,1) and (5,-1)

-1-1 -2
----- = ----- = -2
5-4 1

Answer 7

so slope is -2, now to find the equation of the line, you need in form y = mx + b
where
m= slope
b = y-int
so all we need is to find b
we get any point, lets take (4,1)

1 = -2(4) + b
1 = -8 + b
1+8 = b
b = 9

Answer 8

y=?-2x+9

Answer 9

correct y = -2x +9

Answer 10

ok mind helping with like 1 or 2 more?

Answer 11

not the same type of questions though
