Question 742372: Hi there,
I am having trouble with finding an equation for two sets of coordinates.
for example, the question is
find the equation for the coordinates (0,-3) (2,3)
I know y=mx+c and I know how to find m and c but I don't understand some things.
would they have the same equation or not? because for x1 y1 the equation would be
y=3x-3 right? But I don't think it is right for the whole of the coordinates because shouldn't there only be one equation for the co-ordinate (0,-3) (2,3)?
Help or if you cant understand me point me in the direction of a page to help :)
Thanks
Sariah
p.s this site is amazing :) helped out a lot.
