Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (9,5) and (8, -3). Put

your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.

Answer 1

Point slope form, ok slope is change in y over change in x

m = (5 - -3)/(9 - 8) = 8/1 = 8

Answer: y + 3 = 8(x - 8)
