put in slope intercept form
(-1,-6) and (-4,-7)
I got m=1/3 , which is wrong
-------------
1/3 is the correct slope.
It says to put in slope-int form, which is a form of equation.
It should say, "Put the equation of the line thru the points in slope-int form."
-------
Use y = mx + b and either point to find b, the y-int.
-6 = (1/3)*(-1) + b
b = -17/3
--> y = (1/3)x - 17/3
