Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept from of the line that passes through (-2, 5) and (-4, -5)

Answer 1

y = 5x + 15

Explanation:

The formula for slope is [ y2-y1/x2-x1 ].

-5-5/-4-(-2)

-10/-2

5

Find the y-intercept using slope intercept form, slope, and one point.

5 = 5(-2) + b

5 = -10 + b

15 = b

Input all the data we solved for back into the expression.

y = 5x + 15

Best of Luck!
