Question 769779: Write an equation, in slop-intercept form if possible, of the line through the pair of points.
(-7,6) and (0,4)
Can you also show your work on how to solve this as well? I'm lost.
Thanks!

Write an equation, in slop-intercept form if possible, of the line through the pair of points.
(-7,6) and (0,4)

Work:
slope = (4-6)/(0+7) = -2/7
Then equation is: y = -(2/7)x+b
Since (0,4) is in the line b = 4
Answer: y = -(2/7)x+4
