Which of the following is an equation of a line passing through the points (-1,2) and (-3,-2)? A) y=1/2x+4 B) y/2=x+4 C) y=2(x+2) D) y-x/2=8
can u find the slope of the line using (-1,2) and (-3,-2) ?
y=mx+b form?
\[slope = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }\]
that;s the formula, yes, but what is the slope?
yep ! if u want it that way u can find the slope and go to slope intercept form or y= mx + b or u could do it using point slope form.. but before that u must find the slope
(-2)-2/(-3)--1
@Decayer_ FOOLOW @***[ISURU]***
Is it B?
answer i c
y = 2x +4
\[( x_{1} \ \ \ \ , \ \ \ \ \ \ y_{1} ) \ \ \ ( x_{2} \ \ \ \ \ , \ \ \ \ y_{2})\] ( -1 , 2) ( -3 , -2) now plug them in to \[slope = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }\]
Or, from your answers it would be y= 2(x+2)
and as suru said the formulae is for slope which is not compolsory to know
can u do that ?
Dageek did u found the slope ?
C?
