Question

Write in slope intercept form:
(-5,-11) and (-2,1)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: -15/9 my teacher told me

Answer 2

y = 4x + 9

Explanation:

First, find the slope of the line, which is the change in y/the change in x:

(-11-1)/(-5-(-2)) = -12/-3 = 4

That leaves you with the equation:

y = 4x

But notice, when x = -2 in the equation, y = -8, but we want it to be 1, so we add 9 to the end of the equation:

y = 4x + 9

I hope this helped.
