Question

write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through the points (-2,3) and (2,7)

Answer 1

M=1

Explanation:

find the slope (M)

the slope is 1

Hope this helps Bodhi,

Answer 2

y = x+5

Explanation:

First find the slope

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

= ( 7-3)/(2 - -2)

( 7-3)/(2+2)

4/4

1

Then slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1*x+b

y = x+b

Substitute a point into the equation

7 = 2+b

7-2 =b

5=b

y = x+5
