Find the equation of the line that goes through the points (-4,1) and (-1,4)
\n" ); document.write( "Use determinants.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "|x +y 1|
\n" ); document.write( "|-4 +1 1| = 0
\n" ); document.write( "|-1 +4 1|
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "x(1-4) - y(-4+1) + -16+1 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "-3x + 3y = 15
\n" ); document.write( "x - y = -5\r
