Question

will gave a medal What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (–2, 3) and (2, 7)? A. x – y = –1
B. x – y = –2
C. x – y = –5
D. x – y = –6

Answer 1

you have 2 points find the slope
choose one point you have y,m and x find b
now write the general equation in the form y =mx + b

Answer 2

sorry in this problem they want x - y =b

Answer 3

so -2-3=-1?

Answer 4

how do you find the slope

Answer 5

change in y/change in x
7-3/2--2 =4/4 =1
using the point (2 7)
7 = (1)(2) + b b=5
y = x + 5
rearrange to get x - y = ?
