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

Answer 5

Katherine what do you think

Answer 6

idk. that's why I'm asking

Answer 7

Take a guess

Answer 8

A

Answer 9

You need to first identify the slope, plug the points in here...

\(\Large\bf{\frac{-1-4}{2-3}}\) what is the slope?

Answer 10

umm

Answer 11

-5/-1

Answer 12

Correct, so the negatives cancel to 5.

So that is our slope!

\(\large\bf{y=5x+b}\)

Now we need to identify the y-intercept.

So we would plug in one coordinate into the equation. Let's use (3,4).

\(\large\bf{4=5(3)+b}\)

What is b?

Answer 13

y=3x-5

Answer 14

not quite.

First we multiply.

\(\large\bf{4=15+b}\)

Then subtract 15 from each side.

\(\large\bf{-11=b}\)

\(\large\bf{y=5x-11}\)

Answer 15

So, C?

Answer 16

yup
