Question

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line passing through (5,1) and (2,10)

Answer 1

is there a picture?

Answer 2

no?

Answer 3

these are the options
A) y=3x-16
B)y=-3x-16
C)y=-3x+16
D)y=3x+16

Answer 4

Mind if I help?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

ok well the slope is -3 meaning that it is either B or C, and if you put the two points on the line, I believe that +16 would be the y-intercept, therefore I think it's C

Answer 7

how did you get that

Answer 8

Do you mean how did i get the slope?

Answer 9

no wait i know how to find the slope now

Answer 10

ok, so are you good?

Answer 11

i got a different answer

Answer 12

To find slope do (y2-y1)/x2-x1

Answer 13

i got -2 for slope

Answer 14

show me your steps

Answer 15

i'm going to draw what I did and show you how I got -3
