You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a line passes throughthe given points. write an equation for the live in point-slope form. then rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form.
\n" ); document.write( "(6,-4) (-3,5)
\n" ); document.write( "y1-y2/x1-x2
\n" ); document.write( "i got
\n" ); document.write( "[5-(-4)]/[-3-6] = 9/-8 = -1
\n" ); document.write( "is that right?
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, that is right.
\n" ); document.write( "so you add 5-(-4). but i thought you were supposed to subtract everytime though.
\n" ); document.write( "You DID subtract; but when you subtract -4 from 5 you add +4 and +5 to get +9.
\n" ); document.write( " can u clear this up for me? thanks
