In the following exercises, find the equation of a line containing the given points. Write the equation in slope–intercept form.

(4,3)and(8,1)

Short Answer

Expert verified

y=-12x+5

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given Information

The line passes through:

(4,3)and(8,1)
02

Step 2. Equation of line

We know that equation of line is :

y-y1=y2-y1x2-x1(x-x1)

Using this :

y-3=1-38-4(x-4)⇒y-3=-24(x-4)⇒y-3=-12x+2⇒y=-12x+5
