find an equation of the line contaning the given pair of points.
(2,4) and (6,5)
is this correct i got y=1 over 4x + 2

The easiest way to check is to substitute the x values into the equation and see if you get the corresponding y values.
y = 1/(4x + 2) is not a straight line, and does not contain either point.
What you perhaps meant was
y = (1/4)x + 2
That has the right slope, but does not go through either point.
The correct answer is
y = (1/4)x + (7/2)
