What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (2, -7) and (8, -4)?

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line that passes through two points , first find the slope and then use the formula

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m is the slope

(x1 , y1) are any of the points

To find the slope of the line using two points we use the formula

Slope of the line using points

(2, -7) and (8, -4) is

Now the equation of the line using point (2 , - 7) and slope 1/2 is

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
