Question

write an equation of the line that passes through (-8,8) and (1,3)

Answer 1

Equation of a line, y = mx+b

Answer 2

Find the slope first, m = slope, m = y2-y1/(x2-x1), I gtg now hope that helps, bye!

Answer 3

i get that far then i end up with wrong answer still

Answer 4

y=mx+b
find the slope
m=y2-y1/x2-x1
m=3-8/1+8
m=-5/9
so far we have y=-5/9x+b
now plug in any point. i'll use (1,3). x=1, y=3
3=-5(1)/9+b
3=-5/9+b
27=-5+9b
32=9b
b=32/9
so y=mx+b
y=(-5/9)x+32/9
