What is the slope-intercept form of the equation for the line that passes through (6,-9) and (-5, 5)
---------------------------------
slope = (5--9)/(-5-6) = 14/-11 = -14/11
----------------
Form: y = mx + b
Solve for "b":
5 = (-14/11)(-5) + b
b = 5 - 70/11
----
b = (55/11)-(70/11)
b = -15/11
-----
Equation:
y = (-14/11)x - (15/11)
