What is the equation of the line through (-6, -5) and (-4, -4)?

  y = 1/2x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2-point form of the equation for a line is useful for answering questions like this.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1 . . equation of a line through (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

Filling in the given points, the equation becomes ...

  y = (-4 -(-5))/(-4 -(-6))/(x -(-6)) -5

  y = 1/2(x +6) -5

  y = 1/2x -2

the order of operations for 2 + (3 - 9) / -3 * 4 is 1. subtraction, 2. division, 4. multiplication, and 3. addition.
