<PRE><B>Question 166546</B>
Write an equation for each line. Express it in the 
standard form Ax + By = C 
Through (4,2) and (-2,5) 
-----------------------------
slope : (5-2)/(-2-4) = -1/6
-----------------------------
intercept: 2 = (-1/2)*4 + b
2 = -2 + b
b = 4
-------------
EQUATIONs;
y = (-1/2)x + 4
--------------
Putting it into standard form:
2y = -x + 8
x + 2y = 8
=================
