Easiest point would be the midpoint, with
, and
The slope is the change in Y divides by the change in x:

Could you find another point on a line with this points: (0,18000) (8,4500);Also how do you find the slope of this line?

We'll find the slope first:

m = 


m = 

m = 

m = 

m = 

Now we use tio point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 18000 = (x - 0)

y - 18000 = x

y = x + 18000

Just substitute random values for x into that equation,

(2, 14625),  (-6,28125), (-500,861750), 

(10,1125), (8,4500), (2222,-3731625)

Those are all points on the line.
