Question

What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, 3) and (-4, -1)?

2x + 1
y = 2x + 7
y = + 1
y = + 7

Answer 1

@peachpi ???

Answer 2

do you know the formula for slope?

Answer 3

is it y2-y1 over x2-x1?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

so do I just do that to find out the answer?

Answer 6

it looks like you actually have to write the equation. After you find the slope put it and one of the points into point-slope form. Then you solve for y

Answer 7

y - y1 = m(x - x1) is point slope

Answer 8

Is the answer y=x/2+1?

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

Thank you for your time kind sir

Answer 11

you're welcome, although I'm not a sir. Just like Ernie :)
