Thank you
Y-2 = [(2-4)/(-6+5)](X+6)=2X+12
Y=2X+14....
GOOD YOUR ANSWER IS CORRECT.
AS REGARDS STANDARD OR ,THERE ARE SEVERAL FORMS...THE MOST COMMON IS
1.SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM...Y = MX + C.......WHICH IS WHAT YOU HAVE GOT
Y=2X+14...SLOPE = M =2.........INTERCEPT=C= 14
2. LINEAR EQN. FORM.....AX+BY+C=0
2X-Y+14=0
I FEEL YOUR ANSWER IS GOOD TO BE LEFT ALONE
