Write the equation in slope-intercept form. Slope = -4; (1,-3) Slope = .5; (-8,-5) (2,1) and (0,7) (-6,-6) and (2,-2)

Sorry for bothering you guys...

For 3 & 4, to find the slope, use y2 - y1 divided by x2 - x1.

 

Let one point be (x1, y1) and the other (x2, y2).

 

Then, choose one of the two points to use for y - y1 = m(x - x1).

 

For 2, follow the same format as 1.

First one: y - y1 = m(x - x1).

 

Second one: Choose whichever point to use for (x1,y1); see previous equation in #1.

 

Third one: (0,7)(-6,-6) (2,-2) ????????? Does not form a line.

There are more than just three.... Four questions not three, and what do you mean it doesnt form a line? i'm confused.

Can you post them as 1) 2) 3) 4) rather than all of them in just one line.

1.) Slope = -4; (1,-3)

2.) Slope =.5; (-8,-5)

3.) (2,1) and (0,-7)

4.) (-6,-6) and (2,-2)
