Question

write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,4) and (5,8). Put your answer in fully reduced point slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.

Answer 1

y-4=4(x+2)/7

Explanation:

slope(m) = (8-4)/(5-(-2)) =4/7

b = 4-(4/7)×(-2) = 36/7

y = mx+b

y = 4x/7+36/7

in point-slope form,

y-4=4(x+2)/7
