Question

Write the equations for the lines described

1) containing the points (1,-3) and (5,-2)
For this question I actually solved it and attained y = -5/6 + 13/6. I just need someone to verify these for me.

2) with slope 0 and containing the point (4,2)

Answer 1

(1,-3) and (5,-2)

slope = -2 -(-3) / 5 - 1 = 1 /4

use the point-slope formula.

y - (-3) = 1/4(x-1)
y + 3 = 1/4x - 1/4
y = 1/4x - 13/4

Answer 2

2) m = 0
(4,2)
y - 2 = 0(x-4)
y - 2= 0x + 0
y - 2 =0
y = 2
