Question

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, 3) and (5, -3)?

Answer 1

y = -6/5x + 3

Explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-3 - 3/ 5 - 0

= -6/5

To find the y-intercept, you need to plug the coordinates into the equation,

y = -6/5x + b

3 = -6/5(0) + b

3 = 0 + b

b = 3

The equation is y = -6/5x + 3
