Question

What is the equation of a line through (-1 4) and (1 -2)

Answer 1

it should be this anwser m=−1

Answer 2

Answer: y=-3x+1

Explanation:

1. Use the formula
`(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)`

2. Subsitute:

`(4-(-2))/(-1-1)` =>
`(6)/(-2)`

3. Solve for m in the equation y=mx+b:

m=-3(from step above)

4. y+2=-3(x-1)

=> y+2=-3x+3 => y=-3x-1

Have a nice day! :D
