What is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (-2, 1) and (6, 2)?

Answer 1

slope = (2-1)/(6+2) = 1/8

y-2 = (1/8)(x-6) --- that may be the form you want, point slope

8y-16 = x-6

x-8y = -10 simplest form

y= (1/8)x -3/4 + 2

y= (1/8)x + 5/4 --- slope intercept form
