Question 832901: hi again i was wondering when your writing an equation in slope intercept form and your forming for the line through any two sets of coordinates�.. when your done using slope intercept form; m=y2-y1/x2-x1 should you always use the first set of coordinates to replace the letters in the formula y=mx+b
sorry i know my question is a little confusing but when i did this for a math problem i had on HW i used the 2 set of coordinates and got it wrong then i used the 1 set of coordinates and got it right unless my math was just wrong , Thanks for your help
