Graph the line that passes through the points (4, 3) and (1,6) and determine the equation of the line.

y = -x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula:

Step 1: Find slope

m = (6 - 3)/(1 - 4)

m = -1

Step 2: Find b

y = -x + b

6 = -1 + b

b = 7

Step 3: Rewrite linear equation

y = -x + 7

y = -x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1, y1) = (4 , 3)

(x2, y2) = (1 , 6)

m = - 1;  (4,3)

y - 3 = (-1)(x -4)

y - 3 = -x + 4

y = -x + 4 + 3

y = -x + 7
