Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through (3, 4) and (2, –1) in slope-intercept form.

y = 3x – 7
y = 3x – 5
y = 5x – 11
y = 5x – 9
please help

Answer 3

Do you know how to find the slope?
Hint: y2-y1/x2-x1

Answer 4

nope i think is a

Answer 5

Well, for the slope you would get:
4-(-1)/3-2
5/1
The slope is 5.

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Answer 6

So if you know the slope is 5, what do you think the answer is?

Answer 7

c

Answer 8

Why do you say that?

Answer 9

becuase ot has 5

Answer 10

C and D both have a 5, yeah?

Answer 11

You're on the right track. It will be either C or D, you know that A and B are out because the slope for those two equations is 3, not 5.

Answer 12

Next you need to find b, which is the y-intercept. Do that by plugging in a set of coordinates - we'll use (3,4) and solving for b.

y = mx + b
4 = 5(3) + b

Do you see what I did there? I plugged the x-coodinate in for x, the y coordinate in for y, and the 5 for the slope. Now we need to solve for b to find the y-intercept. Do you think you can do that?

Answer 13

so c

Answer 14

Did you solve for the y-intercept?

Answer 15

Solve this for b and tell me what you get.
4 = 5(3) + b

Answer 16

Answer 17

i go it correct
thank u and it was c
