Question

What is the equation in point slope form of a line that passes through the points (-4,-1)and5,7)

​

Answer 1

`(8)/(9)`

Explanation:

using the image attached as reference

(-4,-1) - the -4 becomes x1, and the -1 becomes y1

(5,7) - the 5 becomes x 2 and the 7 becomes y2

plug this information into the equation

7-(-1)

m=----------

5-(-4)

solve

8

m=----------

9

​so your slope would become 8/9
