Question

The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (-9, -2) and (1, 3) is y − 3 = (x − 1). What is

he slope-intercept form of the equation for this line?

Answer 1

`m = (3 - ( - 2))/(1 - ( - 9)) = (5)/(10) = (1)/(2)`

`y - 3 = (1)/(2) (x - 1)`

`y - 3 = (1)/(2) x - (1)/(2)`

`y = (1)/(2) x + (5)/(2)`
