someone help

do you know how to find the slope and y-int?
its just confusing
im in a special class for math and this is hard
to find the slope use \(\dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\)
first choose and two ordered pairs
let's do line 1 (-2,4) (2,6) \(\dfrac{6 - 4}{2 - (-2)}\)
ive take this stupid stuff five times now and its just hard!
\(\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{1}{2}\)
now we find the y-int of it \(y = \dfrac{1}{2}x + b\) \(6 = \dfrac{1}{2}*2 + b\)
\(5 = b\) so the equation for line1 is \(y = \dfrac{1}{2}x + 5\)
you need a decimal for slope so put 0.5
now the slope for line 2 (-2, -2) (0, 4) \(\dfrac{4 - (-2)}{ 0 - (-2)} = \dfrac{6}{2} = 3\)
\(y = 3x + b\) solve for b \(-2 = 3* -2 + b\) \(4 = b\)
so your second equation is \(y = 3x + 4\)
thanks alot can u check my last answer nobody told me if it was right or wrong i will post it again
sure
k thanks
