Question

Write an equation that represents the line that passes through the points (2,-3) and (-5,1). Show work.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

find slope of line formula is in picture m=(1+3)/(-5-2) = 4/-7

now by general eq in point slope form

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

y+3 = -4/7(x-2)

7y+21 = -4x+8

4x+7y+13=0

the points also satisfy this equation.
