You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the equation of the line (in y = mx + b form) that passes through the points
(-8, 6.5) and (9, -11)
------------------------------
slope = (-11-6.5)/(9--8) = -17.5/17
-------------------------------------------
intercept: -11 = (-17.5/17)*9 + b
b = -11 + (9.2647..)
b= -1.7353...
--------------------
Equation:
y = (-17.5/17)x - 1.7353..
====================================
