Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form through the points (-5,-2) and (5,-1)
Added by Daniela H.
Step 1
Here, the points are \((-5, -2)\) and \((5, -1)\). Assign \((x_1, y_1) = (-5, -2)\) and \((x_2, y_2) = (5, -1)\). \[ m = \frac{-1 - (-2)}{5 - (-5)} = \frac{-1 + 2}{5 + 5} = \frac{1}{10} \] Show more…
