Question 1113711: Find the slope-intercept form of the line which passes through the points P(-1,0) and Q(-4,6). Found 2 solutions by rothauserc, Boreal:Answer by rothauserc(4718) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! slope = (6-0)/(-4-(-1) = 6/-3 = -2
:
use the point (-1,0)
:
0 = -2(-1) +b
:
b = -2
:
************************************
slope intercept form is
:
y = -2x -2
************************************
:
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Slope is change in y/change in x
It is 6/-3 or -2
point slope formula with y-y1=m(x-x1), m is slope, (x1, y1) point
y-6=-2(x+4)
y-6=-2x-8
y=-2x-2
This is a solution .
