Question

Find the equation (in slope-intercept form) of the line passing through the points with the given coordinates.(3,-5) , (4,5)

Answer 1

We will determine th equation in slope-intercept from of the line as follows:

First, we find the slope:

`m=(5-(-5))/(4-(3))\Rightarrow m=10`

Then:

`y-5=10(x-4)\Rightarrow y-5=10x-40`
`\Rightarrow y=10x-35`

So, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

`y=10x-35`
