 2. Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points.(1/4,-1/2) and (3/4,1). y=        . Simply. type answer in y=mx+b using integers or fractions.
 
 3. Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the given line. Express your answer in the form y=mx+b. (8,9); x+4y=9. The equation of the line is y=      .
 
 4. Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the given line. Express your answer in the form y=mx+b. (-7,7); 8x=7y+9.
 
 5. (3,4); 5x+y=7
 These are the last ones I need and I just cannot come out with the correct answers. Please someone HELP! THank you.

 2. Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points.(1/4,-1/2) and (3/4,1).
 Same as #1

 3. Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the given line. Express your answer in the form y=mx+b. (8,9); x+4y=9.
 Find the slope of the given line first.
 The equation of the line is y=      .   You're wasting time typing that.  What purpose does that serve?
