Find the equation of a line that contains the points (8.2) and (-8,-8). Write the equation in slope-intercept form, using
fractions when required.

Answer 1

y = 5/8x - 3

Explanation:

(8,2) and (-8,-8)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( -8 -2)/ (-8 - 8)

m = (-10)/(-16)

m = 5/8

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = 5/8(x - 8)

y - 2 = 5/8x - 5

y = 5/8x - 3
