Question 277201
u need to use the point slope form to find the slope then use the slope intercept formula to find the intercept, then u will have the equation.
{{{m=((y-y)/(x-x))}}} (-4,4)(8,8) substitute
{{{m=((4-8)/(-4-8))}}} subtract/add
{{{m=((-4)/(-12))}}} reduce
{{{m=(1/3)}}}
_____
{{{y=mx+b}}}
{{{8=(1/3)8+b}}} multiply
{{{8=(8/3)+b}}} subtract
{{{8-(8/3)=b}}} make subtractable fraction
{{{(24/3)-(8/3)=b}}} subtract
{{{(16/3)=b}}}
____
{{{y=(1/3)x+(16/3)}}}
this is the equation for the line that passes through those points.
