Question 503048
x1		y1	x2	y2				
-7		-4	-1	-9				
								
slope m =		(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)						
(	-9	-	-4	)/(	-1	-	-7	) 
(	-5	/	6	)  				
m=		-  5/ 6						 
								
Plug value of  the slope  and point (-7	,-4) in	
Y 	=	m	x 	+	b			
-4.00	=	35/6	+	b				
b=	-4	-	35/6					
b=	-59/ 6							
So the equation  will be								
Y 	=	- 5/6	x 		-59/6
