And your question, we need to determine an equation that goes through these two points.
00:05
So i'm going to label the first one, x1, y1, and the second one, x2, y2.
00:10
And the first thing i'm calculating is the slope.
00:14
The formula is y2 minus y1 over x2 minus x1.
00:19
So that would be a negative 5 minus a negative 6 over 5 minus 3.
00:26
And that's going to give us a positive 1 over 2.
00:32
Now, to find your equation, we'll use the format point slope form, which is y minus y1, equals m parentheses x minus x1.
00:44
Plugging in our values, we would have y minus a negative 6 equals our slope 1ā2 times x minus 3 for our x1.
00:58
Now you have two choices for answer format, general form or slope intercept form.
01:06
So what i want to do is put this in slope intercept form.
01:11
We end up with y plus six on the left equals one half x minus three over two...
