Question
Find an equation for the line passing through the two given points. Write your answer in the form $y=m x+b$.(a) $(4,8)$ and $(-3,-6)$(b) $(-2,0)$ and $(3,-10)$(c) $(-3,-2)$ and $(4,-1)$
Step 1
Step 1: The slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is given by the formula $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$. Show more…
