4/3 is slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try to find the slope using the formula \[m=\frac{ y _{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8/3+b=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1402346904585:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

b=-5/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=4/3x-5/3

lol

@yguo17 do not give people answers directly... give them hints but dont write the answer

we are here to help people learn how to do stuff so that when they are offline they can use the help to solve real life situations (classwork, work...)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or you can just find the slope using \[ m = \frac{ y_{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\] then use the point slope form, do some algebra and transform it into y=mx+b form \[y-y _{1}=m(x-x _{1})\] Where \[(x_1,y_1)\] are your first coordinates, and slope is m.
