Question

Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (-5,-5) and (3,1)

PLZ HELP!!!

Answer 1

y=3/4x-5/4

Explanation:

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

m=(1-(-5))/(3-(-5))

m=(1+5)/(3+5)

m=6/8

simplify

m=3/4

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-5)=3/4(x-(-5))

y+5=3/4(x+5)

y=3/4x+15/4-5

y=3/4x+15/4-20/4

y=3/4x-5/4
