Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through (1, 3) and (-2, -3)?
y = -2x + 1

y = 2x + 1 correct?

y = 1/2 x - 1

y = -1/2 x + 1

Answer 1

Find the slope and then plug that into standard form of y = mx+b

Answer 2

Slope formula: \(\Large m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\)
And of you prefer use the point-slope formula: \(\Large y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})\)

Answer 3

m=y^2-y^1 = -6/-3

Answer 4

im a little confused

Answer 5

ok
