Question

Slope intercept form for points through (0,-5) and (4,0)

Answer 1

y = (5/4)x - 5

Explanation:

(0, -5) and (4, 0)

(x₁, y₁) (x₂, y₂)

y₂ - y₁ 0 -(-5) 5

m = ------------- = ------------ = ---------

x₂ - x₁ 4 - 0 4

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y -(-5) = (5/4)(x - 0)

y + 5 = (5/4)x - 0

-5 -5

----------------------------

y = (5/4)x - 5

I hope this helps!
