Given the points (2 , 1.5 ) and ( 0 , 4.5 )

the slope of the line will be calculated as following :

So, the slope = -1.5

To write the equation of the line in slope intercept form

the form will be y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

y-intercept is the value of y at which x = 0

which is the point ( 0 , 4.5)

so, b = 4.5

so, the equation of the line will be:

y = -1.5 x + 4.5

Please help me!!! ASAP!!Using the points (2,1.5) and (0,4.5) write the equation of-example-1
