which equation represents the line passing through the points (3,2) and (-9,6)

Answer 1

Find the slope m.

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

x₁ = 3

y₁ = 2

x₂ = -9

y₂ = 6

Plug in the numbers and get m. Once you have m, you can write the equation in point slope form as

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

or

y - y₂ = m(x - x₂)
