Question

help! if you dont my mom will kill me! What is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (7, 5) and (−4, −1)

Answer 1

y-1= 6/11 (x-4)

Answer 2

Did I help you trumpdonald

Answer 3

First find the slope
Slope = m = (Y2 -Y1) ÷ (X2 -X1)
Slope = m = (-1-5) / (-4 -7)
Slope = m = -6 / -11
= 6/11

Now we must put numbers in this equation:
y = mx + b
We can calculate "b" from this equation:
b = y -mx
Let's take one of the points (7,5) and put it into the equation
b = 5 -(6/11 * 7)
b = 5 -(42/11)
b = 13/11
So,
y = 6/11 x + 13/11
