Find the equation of the line through the given pair of

Question

points in standard form using only integers. 3) (5, 2) and (-1, 6)

Answer 1

(-1,6), (5,2).

m = (2-6)/(5-(-1)) = -4/6 = -2/3.

Y = mx + b.
6 = (-2/3)(-1) + b,
b = 6-2/3 = 18/3-2/3 = 16/3.

y = -2x/3 + 16/3,
2x/3 + y = 16/3,
Multiply Eq. by 3:
2x + 3y = 16. Std. form.
