Question 760336: Find the slope determined by the following pair of points (-5,3), (9,6)

Find the gradient y2 - y1/x2 - x1
= 6 - 3/9 -(-5)
= 3/14
Using equation: y - b = m(x - a)
y - 6 = 3/14(x - 9)
y - 6 = 3/14x - 27/14
y = 3/14x - 27/14 + 84/14
y = 3/14x + 57/14
Multiply through by 14
14y = 3x + 57
Hope this helps.
