What is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (−1, 3) and (1, 7)?
y − 7 = 4(x − 1)
y − 7 = 2(x − 1)
y − 3 = 2(x − 1)
y − 3 = 4(x + 1)

@thomaster
OpenStudy (carolina4567):
Help anyone
OpenStudy (zpupster):
can you find the slope ??
OpenStudy (zpupster):
\[m=\frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\]

from (x1,y1) (x2,y2)
or (-1,3) (1,7)
OpenStudy (zpupster):
plug the values in the formula
OpenStudy (carolina4567):
m = 7 - 3 / 1 - (-1)
OpenStudy (zpupster):
yes
OpenStudy (zpupster):
what is the slope??

4/0 I think
OpenStudy (zpupster):
no 1-(-1)= 1+1 = 2
in math 0 is never allowed in denominator
OpenStudy (zpupster):
- * - = +
OpenStudy (carolina4567):
Hmmm of so 4 /2
OpenStudy (zpupster):
yes so 2 is your slope

"point-slope" form.
\[y - y1 = m(x-x1)\]
OpenStudy (zpupster):
lets plug in
y - 7 = 2(x-1) from the ordered pair (1,7) or x1,y1)
OpenStudy (carolina4567):
OMG THANK U SO MUCH
OpenStudy (carolina4567):
Mind helping me with another one
OpenStudy (zpupster):
sorry i am out of time today maybe i can help in the future..
