Writing Linear Equations Given Two Points Answers

The first step of writing an equation when given two points is the same for both strategies, slope-intercept or point-slope forms. What would be the first step in finding the equation of the line that passes through (5, 1) and (3, 5)?

y = –3x + 5y = 3x – 5 [image 1] [image 2]

y = x + 67 = –1(–1) + by – 4 = –1 (x – 2)y – 7 = –1 (x – (–1))y – 2 = x – 4y = –x + 6

In which step did Helena make an error?

y = -15/11✔ 13x

Use point-slope form, y - y1 = m(x - x1), to find the linear equation of a line that passes through the points (2, -1) and (10, 7).

+ -23✔ -3717
