Question
Write an equation for each line passing through the given pair of points. Give the final answer in (a) slope-intercept form and (b) standard form.$$(8,5) \text { and }(9,6)$$
Step 1
The slope (m) is given by the formula: $$ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} $$ Substituting the given points into the formula, we get: $$ m = \frac{6 - 5}{9 - 8} = 1 $$ Show more…
