Question

Find equation in slope intercept form of the line passing through the points with given coordinates (-3,-4), (0,-3)

Answer 1

Explanation:

→ Find the gradient

( -3 --4 ) ÷ ( 0 --3) = 1/3

→ Write into format

y = 1/3x + c

→ Substitute in a coordinate pair

-3 = 0 + c

→ Solve for c

c = -3

→ Write into format

y = 1/3x - 3
