Question

find equation of line passing through (2,4) and (-1,3)​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\frac{1}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first you have to find the slope of the line passing through (2,4) and (-1,3).

Given:

(2,4) and (-1,3) (Find the equation of line passing through.)

Slope is the abbreviation for slope is m. Plug x and y values of the points into the equation. Keep units attached to the numbers. Subtracting first, then dividing. Carry the units through to the answer.

Solutions:

First, you have to use slope formula.

$\Large\boxed{\textnormal{SLOPE FORMULA}}}$

$\displaystyle M=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{Rise}{Run}$

Y₂=3

Y₁=4

X₂=(-1)

X₁=2

Solve.

$\displaystyle \frac{3-4}{(-1)-2}=\frac{-1}{-3}=\boxed{\frac{1}{3} }$

$\Large\boxed{\frac{1}{3} }$

Hence, the final answer is 1/3.
