Question

A line passes through the points (6, 8) and (4, 2). What is its equation in slope-intercept

form?
Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

y=3x-10

Explanation:

Slope: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(2-8)/(4-6)

slope= -6/-2 = 3

Point: (6,8)

Slope-intercept: y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-8=3(x-6)

y-8=3x-18

y=3x-10
