Question

Find the equation of the line.
The line passes through the points (2,3) and (-3,-2)

Answer 1

Y=x+1 is the right answer

Answer 2

y=x+1

Explanation:

Equation of a line: y=mx+b

To solve for the slope (m) use:
Formula: m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Substitute: -2-3/-3-2

Simplify: -5/-5 = 1

y=x+b

To solve for the b value ( y-intercept), substitute one of the given points
3=2+b

b=1

Your final equation is y=x+1
