A line includes the points (5, 5) and (0, –4). What is its equation in slope-intercept form? Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

Answer 1

line through (5,5) and (0,-4) has slope = m = (5+4)/(5-0) = 9/5

y= mx + b where m=9/5 and b =-4= y intercept

y=(9/5)x -4 is the equation through the given points in slope intercept form
