Question 984198
.
Find slope:
slope=(change in y)/(change in x)=(-2-(-3))/(1-4)=-(1/3)
slope: m=-(1/3)
.
point slope form: (using point (1,-2))
{{{y-y[1]=m(x-x[1])}}}
{{{y-(-2)=-(1/3)(x-1)}}} point slope form
{{{y+2=-(1/3)x+(1/3)}}} (Simplify to check)
{{{y=-(1/3)x-(5/3)}}} (check with below)
.
slope-intercept form: (Using point (4,-3))
{{{y=-(1/3)x+b}}}
{{{-3=-(1/3)4+b}}}
{{{9=4-3b}}}
{{{5=-3b}}}
{{{-5/3=b}}}
.
{{{y=-(1/3)x-(5/3)}}} (Check with above)
