find the slope intercept that goes through these two points: (8,-5) and (3,4)

Answer 1

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope intercept form y - y1 = m(x-x1)

(x1,y1) = (8,-5)

(x2, y2) = (3,4)

slope = (4-(-5))/(3-8) = 9/(-5).= -9/5

y-(-5)=(-9/5)(x-8)

y+5=-9x/5+72/5

y=-9x/5 + 72/5 -5 = -9x/5 +72/5 -25/5=-9x/5+47/5

y=-1.8x+9.4
