Question

Find the equation of the line that passes through the points

3) and (-1, 11)
Enter your answer in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b

Answer 1

Answer: y=-4x+7

Explanation:

(1, 3) and (-1, 11)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) ==> Slope formula

m=(11-3)/(-1-1)

m=8/(-2)

m=-4

y=mx+b

3=-4(1)+b

3=-4+b

b=7

y=-4x+7
