Question

L Layout Theme Transition Give the Point-Slope form of the equation that passes through the given points. 1.)(0,8) and (-1,10)

Answer 1

First we need to calculate the slope

`m=(10-8)/(-1-0)=(2)/(-1)=-2`

And then we have to use the slope intercept equation

`y-y_0=m(x-x_0)`

in this case, yo=8 and xo=0

`\begin{gathered} y-8=-2(x-0)=-2x \\ y=-2x+8 \end{gathered}`
