<PRE><B>Question 453391</B>
x1		y1	x2	y2				
1		4	3	1				
								
slope m =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)						
(1-4)/(3-1) 
(-3/2)  				
m=-1.5						 
								
Plug value of  the slope  and point (1,	4) in	
Y 	=	m	x 	+	b			
4.00	=	-1.5	+	b				
b=	4		-1.5					
b=	5.5							
So the equation  will be								
Y =-1.5x+5.5
