Question

Which equation in slope intercept represents the line that goes through the points (-1, 6) and (1, -2)

y=−4x+6

y=4x+10

y=−4x+10

y=−4x+2

Answer 1

D) y=-4x+2

Explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-2-6)/(1-(-1))

m=-8/(1+1)

m=-8/2

m=-4

y-y1=m(x-x1)

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

y-6=-4(x+1)

y=-4x-4+6

y=-4x+2
