Answer:

y=3x+5

Explanation:

first find the gradient

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

from the coordinates you are given x one is -1,x two is1,y one is 2,y two is 8

8-2/1-(-1)

=3

therefore the gradient is 3

after finding the gradient use the equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute x1,y1 and the gradient..y and x are constant

y-2=3(x-(-1))

y-2=3x+3

y=3x+3+2

y=3x+5

Answer:

3x - y +5=0

Explanation:

Slope:-

=> m = 2-8/-1-1 = -6/-2

=> m = 3

Using point slope form :-

=> y - 2 = 3 ( x - (-1))

=> y - 2 = 3x + 3

=> 3x - y +5 = 0
