To find the equation of the line that passes through the points (2, 4) and (0, 1), we have to find the slope of the line using the rule
Let x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
Let x2 = 0 and y2 = 1
The form of the slope-intercept is
b is the y-intercept (value y at x = 0)
Since at x = 0, y = 1
Then the y-intercept is 1
b = 1
The equation is
The slope is 3/2
