Question

Input in standard form the equation of the given line.

The line that passes through (1, 1) and (3, 4)

Answer 1

You need to find the slope first which is rise over run. (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Answer 2

2/3

Answer 3

Then you sub that into the formula for y = mx + b. where m is the slope that you found, and you sub in a point on the line. You know that (1,1) is a point on the line

Answer 4

So solve for b :)
1 = (2/3) 1 + b
Do you understand how I got that equation?

Answer 5

I think I got iit

Answer 6

Whoops, it's (3/2) for the slope

Answer 7

You said 2/3 but remember rise over run

Answer 8

is 1 = (2/3) 1 + b written in the standard form?

Answer 9

No, you have to solve for b. Also the slope you're using is not correct. Remember, rise over run

Answer 10

The standard form is y = mx + b where you know m (the slope) and b (the y intercept).
