find the value of
(,=(,) and
(,= (,)
-slope (could be written as



..cross multiply






}
so, the points are (,) and (,)
now we can use these points to find equation of straight line given points

Solved by pluggable solver: FIND EQUATION of straight line given 2 points
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) = (9, -2) and (x2, y2) = (6, -1).
Slope a is .
Intercept is found from equation , or . From that,
intercept b is , or .

y=(-0.333333333333333)x + (1)

Your graph:
