Question

Write an equation in Slope Intercept Form given the points (2, 3) and (-1, -12)?​

Answer 1

y = 5x -7

Explanation:

first find the slope using the formula y2-y1/x2-x1

-12 -3 -15

--------- = ---- = 5

-1 -2 -3

slope: 5

Now to find the intercept plug in the slope and the numbers into the equation then solve

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y - 3 = 5 (x -2)

y -3 = 5x -10

+3 +3

y = 5x -7
