Asked by Alexis

after finding distance and midpoint.. how do you find the equation of the line?
Answered by Kristen
find the slope using the distance and put the points into the point-slope equation


y1 - y= m times (x-x1)

so if you have the points (3,4) and the slope is 5 then the equation would look like this:

4-y= 5 (x-3)

then distrubute the 5
so its 4-y = 5x -15

then solve it for y
