Question

Find the equation of a line in slope intercept form passing through (-3, 5) and (4, 7).

Answer 1

the slope of given (-3,5) (4,7) is y2-y1/x2-x1 y1=5,y2=7,x1=-3,x2=4. slope = 7-5/4-(-3) = 2/7 equation = (y-y1) = slope(x-x1) (y -5) = 2/7(x-(-3) (y-5)7 = 2(x+3) 7y-35 = 2x+ 6 7y-2x = 6+35 7y-2x = 41
