Find the equation of the line passing through $(8,9)$ and $(-2,-7)$ in standard form.
Equation of the line passing through \(P_1(8,9)\ and\ P_2(-2,-7)\).
Hello Guest!
\(m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{-7-9}{-2-8}\\ \color{blue}m=1.6\)
\(f(x)=m(x-x_1)+y_1\)
\(f(x)=1.6(x-8)+9\\ \color{blue}f(x)=1.6x-3.8\)
