slope formula \(\tt{\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}\)
\(\tt{x_1=-3\\y_1=5\\x_2=2\\y_2=10}\)
The choices are: y = x + 8 y = x − 8 y = −5x − 10 y = −5x + 20
ok so let's find the slope \(\tt{\dfrac{10-5}{2-(-3)}=\dfrac{5}{5}=1}\)
so slope is x

\(\tt{y=x+b}\) we need to find the y-intercept
we can use any of the ordered pairs.
so (-3, 5) would be 5 = -3 + b ?
yes so solve for b
is it b = 8 ?

yup
so slope is 1x or just x y-intercept is 8
that makes the equation \(\tt{y=x+8}\)
oh, okay! thank you
yw :]
