\[m = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }\]
You have two coordinate points. (2,-2) and (3,-9) Let (x1,y1) (x2,y2) Simple input the points into the formula then calculate the slope, which is m.
Since slope intercept form is just: \[y = mx + b\] You just need the slope (m) and b( the y coordinate of when the slope aka line passes the y axis, or in other words, where the slope meets the point of (0, then a y coordinate).
|dw:1711742509956:dw| That is the y intercept point
Thank you !
To find the y intercept, you simply use point slope form. Point-Slope Form \[y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})\] Input the slope into the formula, then either of the coordinates. Once you use algebra to simplify the equation, you will get your slope intercept form.
