is over , meaning the differences of over the differences of

If you have (,) and (, ||), then the difference of the is
(||-)/()...so it could be , or
, and
the difference of the is

so,
if , then ....->...->.....->...
and, your points will be
(,),(, );
check equation:

hahaWe are trying to find equation of form y=ax+b, where a is slope, and b is intercept, which passes through points (x1, y1) = (1, -6) and (x2, y2) = (5, 6).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(3)x + (-9)
