Find the slope between the two points given. Then, use the slope and one of the points to write the equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form. State the slope and y-intercept.

Equation: y=2x-1

Slope: 2

y-intercept: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the points (-1, -3) and (-2, -5). We need to find the slope, equation of the line, and the y intercept of the line

First, let's find the slope

The formula for the slope (m) calculated from two points is where (,) and (,) are points

We have everything we need for the formula, but let's label the values of the points to avoid any confusion

x1=-1

y1=-3

x2=-2

y2=-5

Now substitute into the formula (remember: the formula has SUBTRACTION):

m=

simplify

m=

add

m=

divide

m=2

So the slope is 2

Now let's find the equation of the line

The question asks for it to be in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

We calculated the slope from earlier, so let's substitute that into the equation

y=2x+b

Now we need to find b

The equation will pass through both (-1, -3) and (-2, -5) so we can use either one of them to solve for b (doesn't matter which one)

Let's take (-1, -3) as an example

substitute -1 as x and -3 as y into the equation

-3=2(-1)+b

multiply

-3=-2+b

Add 2 to both sides

-1=b (the value of the y intercept!)

Substitute -1 as b into the equation

y=2x-1

We found everything needed for this problem

Hope this helps!

answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)
