Question 1086922: Given the pints (-3, 5) and (6,-2)
Find the slope of the line throught the points
Write an equation in the point-slope form of the line through the points
Concert the equation to slope-intercept form
convert the equation to standd form, Ax+By=C where A,B,C are intergers
Graph the equations

slope is change in y over change in x=5-(-2)/(-3-6)=-7/9
point slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1), m slope and (x1,y1) either point
y+2=-(7/9)(x-6) ANSWER for point-slope form
y=(-7x/9)+(42/9)-18/9=(-7x/9)+(24/9)
check with other point
y-5=(-7/9)(x+3)
y=(-7x/9)-(21/9)+(45/9)=(-7x/9)+(24/9)
Standard form,
move the x term to the left
(7x/9)+y=(24/9)
multiply by 9 to convert everything to integers
7x+9y=24
