A line passes through the points (1, -4) and (3, 2). Write the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

where two given points are and

Plug in the given points (1, -4) and (3, 2):

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3. Plug this into  :

Normally, we would now go about solving for the y-intercept and forming the possible equation for this line. However, there is only one choice option that has 3 as the slope. Therefore, the equation of the line must be .

I hope this helps!
