Given the points (-10,9) and (4,2)on the standard (x,y) coordinate plane, what is the equation of the line that passes through them?

Answer 1

y=2x+2 is the line parallel to y=2x+3 that goes through the point (1,4)

y=mx + b is the general form of a linear equation with slope=m and y-intercept=b

m= the coefficient of the x term, when the equation is solved for y = 2

y=2x +b. solve for b by plugging in the point (1,4), x=1, y=4

4 =2(1) + b

b = 4-2 = 2

y=2x+2 is a line parallel to y=2x+3, that goes through (1,4)
