Okay, so we want to write an equation in slope.
00:03
It's just a form of the line that passes through these two points.
00:06
So our first step is to find our slope.
00:10
So our slope is equal to the difference of our y values.
00:12
So that's negative 8 minus 5 over the difference of our x values.
00:17
So that's negative 6 plus 2.
00:19
So what is that going to give me? that's going to give us a negative 13 over a 6 minus 2, which is negative 4.
00:29
So we get 13 over 4.
00:32
Okay, so now that we found 13 over 4, which is our slope, let's plug that slope, and let's choose this point to plug into our slope intercept form to solve for our y intercept.
00:46
So here we have 5 is equal to m, which is 13 over 4 times x plus b...
