Find the equation of the line that passes through these two points:
(14, -1) and (-7, -7)
First let's find the slope.
slope = [-7 - -1] / [-7 - 14] = -6 / -21 = 2 / 7
Using the point (14, -1) and a slope of 2/7 , the equation in point-slope form is
y + 1 = 2/7 (x - 14)
y = 2/7x - (2/7)(14) - 1
y = 2/7x - 4 - 1
y = 2/7x - 5
