Write an equation in slope-intercept form for a line that passes through the given pair of points. (4,-7), (-2,-10)
y = 1/2x - 9 Solution Slope Formula: slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) Substitute and Solve m = (-10 +7) / (-2 - 4) m = (-3) / (-6) m = 1/2 or 0.5 Slope intercept form: y = mx + b Pick one of the two points (4,-7) or (-2,-10), substitute and solve -7 = 1/2(4) + b -7 = 2 + b -7 - 2 = b -9 = b Final Answer y = 1/2x - 9
