Question

Help Please?? I'm confused.
Input in standard form the equation of the given line.

The line that passes through (-3, 5) and (-2, -6)

Answer 1

y = mx + c is standard form?
or is that gradient intercept form?

Answer 2

for mine it says the standard form y=mx+b

Answer 3

ok, then points are on the cartesian plane are always written x then y
\[ \large so~ (-3, 5) = (x_1, y_1)~ and~ (-2, -6) = (x_2, y_2) \]
therefore y = mx + c
\[\large m = \frac {y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \]

Answer 4

and b (or c, whichever = y intercept)
find that by subbing in x 1 and y1
y = m(x) + c
-6 = m(-2) + c

sub in ur above value for m
...only c is left

Answer 5

Okay, i got it from here, thank you got your help!
