Find the equation with the given properties. Express the equation in slope intercept form.

Containing points p=(-4,-2) and Q=(-2,1)
What is the equation of the line?
y=

1 answer

P(-4,-2), Q(-2,1).

m = (1-(-2))/(-2-(-4)) = 3/2.

Y = mx + b
Y = (3/2)*(-4) + b = -2
-6 + b = -2
b = 4.

Eq: Y = 3x/2 + 4
