Write an equation for a line through (1,-1) and (2,3)

y = 4x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point slope form and add in the ordered pairs , and once you solve this it equals , or just 4. Now you have the first part of your equation, y = mx + b, but now you have y = 4x + b. To find b, substitute the x and y values of one of the given ordered pairs in for x and y in the equation, and I am using (2,3). The equation now looks like this: 3 = 4(2) + b. Now solve: 3 = 8 + b

Subtract 8 from both sides to get -5 = b. Now you have a full equation: y = 4x -5

b. would be the answer : )

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: add -16x to both sides.

16x−4y+−16x=64+−16x  

−4y=−16x+64

step 2: divide both sides by -4.

−4y /-4 = -16x + 64/-4

answer:   y=4x−16

hope i'm right
