You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given two points, use the two-point form of a line. That is, given

and

, you can write the equation:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"y+-+y%5B1%5D+=+%28%28y%5B1%5D+-+y%5B2%5D%29%2F%28x%5B1%5D+-+x%5B2%5D%29%29%28x+-+x%5B1%5D%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Once you have substituted the values for $\"x%5B1%5D\"$ , $\"y%5B1%5D\"$ , $\"x%5B2%5D\"$ , and $\"y%5B2%5D\"$ , and have done the indicated arithmetic, you need to solve the equation for $\"y\"$ in order to put the equation in slope intercept form. Solving for $\"y\"$ means performing legal algebraic operations on the equation until you have $\"y\"$ on the left and everything else on the right. \n" ); document.write( "
