What is the slope-intercept form of the function that contains the points (3, 1) and (2, 9)? y = ???x + ???

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Find the slope, do you know how to do that?

OpenStudy (imamermaid29):

y = mx+b

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

that is the form of the equation, but I am asking whether or not you know how to find the slope (m)...

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

So do you ?

OpenStudy (imamermaid29):

kinda

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

Ok, then take a shot and I will correct you if anything...

OpenStudy (imamermaid29):

ok one sec

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

sure.

OpenStudy (imamermaid29):

is the answer y = -8x + 25

OpenStudy (mathmale):

You could check that yourself. Select either one of the given points and substitute its coordinates into the equation you've found. If the equation is true, you're correct.
