how to solve these

Question

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the points (-6, 1) and (-3, 7)?

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-1, 7) and m=-4.?

Answer 1

For the first one use two-point form

(y - 1) / (x + 6) = (7 - 1) / (-3 + 6)

For the second one use point-slope form

y - 7 = -4(x + 1)
