Question

Linear equation that passes through the points of (1,4) and (6,-1)

Answer 1

y = -x+5

Explanation:

Use point slope formula to find the equation of the line

First find the slope: (-1-4)/(6-1) = -5/5, slope = -1

Then, use the formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = -1(x - 1)

y - 4 = -x+1

y = -x + 5
