Find the slope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2 correct?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

yes

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Now take the equation y = mx + b. Choose either one of the given points. Replace x and y and m. Find b

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Or you could use point-slope form if you prefer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Point slop form is the y-y1=m(x-x1)? And I would use any point so plug in the A and get 2x+y=3?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 2x+y=3 is our answer for the problem?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and the way to check the answer would be to plug in both cords, and should come out even with the equation =p Thanks

OpenStudy (mertsj):

yes. Both ordered pairs should make the sentence true.
