We're being asked to write the equation of a line that passes through the two given points.
00:04
So we have negative 3, negative 1, that's right here, and we have the ordered pair 6 negative 4, so that's down below.
00:10
Well, we're asked to write in a slope intercept form.
00:13
Remember, that's y equals mx plus b, where m represents the slope of the line, and b represents the y intercept for the line.
00:24
So the first thing we need to do is find the slope.
00:27
Well, we can do this graphically by using rise over run.
00:30
So i'm going to start at the ordered pair, negative 3, negative 1.
00:34
So for our rise, we have to go down 1, 2, 3 units.
00:38
So our rise is negative 3.
00:40
And for our run, we go over 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9...
