Question

Write an equation in standard form for the line that passes through the given points.

(−2,−3)(4,−7)

Answer 1

The equation you need is (-7+3)/(4+2)=(y+3)/(x+2) where the fraction on the left is the slope...so this is alled the 2 point form.

You need to "massage" it around to standard form (and you may have to look up what standard form means).
