Question

I need help solving this problem. Write an equation in slope-intercept form that goes through the points (-3, -4) and (3, 4)?

Answer 1

slope = (4+4)/(3+3) = 8/6 = 4/3 = (y-4)/(x-3)

y-4 = (4/3)(x-3)

y = (4/3)x -12/3 +4

y = (4/3)x is the equation through the given two points, in slope intercept form, with intercept =0

y=mx+b is the general form for a linear equation in slop intercept form, with m=slope and b= y intercept

if m=4/3 and b =0, the equation is y=(4/3)x + 0 or just y=(4/3)x

the y intercept is the origin (0,0). so is the x intercept
