Find the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that passes through the points (5, 2) and (-7, 3). Write the equation in slope-intercept form.
:
Find the slope using the slope formula: m =
Assign the values as follows:
x1 = 5; y1 = 2
x2 = -7; y2 = 3
:
m = = =
:
Use the point slope formula: y - y1 = m(x - x1)
:
y - 2 = (x - 5)
:
y - 2 = x +
:
y = x + + 2
:
y = x + +
:
y = x + ; the slope/intercept form
