Question

Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points.
(4,1) and (12,7)

Answer 1

y= 3/4x-2

Explanation:

y2-y1/x2-x1

7-1/12-4

m=6/8

m=3/4

now solve for b (y-intercept)

plug in any y or x from any point

7=3/4(12)+b

7=36/4+b

7=9+b

7=9+b

subtract nine on both sides

-2=b

thats how u get ur equation
