Answer 1

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

A = (2, 6)

B = (12, 11)

Number 1.

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

x1 = 2 y1 = 6 x2 = 12 y2 = 11

- Substitution

m = (11 - 6) / (12 - 2)

-Simplification

m = 5/10

-Result

m = 1/2

2.- Number 2

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

-Substitution

y - 6 = 1/2(x - 2)

3.-

-Simplify

y - 6 = 1/2x - 2(1/2)

y - 6 = 1/2x - 1

-Solve for y

y = 1/2x - 1 + 6

-Result

y = 1/2x + 5
