Question

How do you find a equation of the line containing the given pair of points (-5,0) and (0,9)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is given by m=y2-y1/x2-x1

M=9-0/0--5=9/5

m=5

The equation is of the form; y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

For the point (0,9) is on the y axis, y intercept is 9.

Hence, y=5x+9
