Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (5,4) and (6,-1)

Y = -5x + 29

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is finding the slope:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-1 - 4 = -5

6 - 5 = 1

-5/1 = -5

Now to point slope form ( y - y1 = m (x - x1)

Let's use the point 5, 4.

y - 4 = -5 (x - 5)

Time to simplify to slope intercept form ( y = mx + b)!

1. distribute

y - 4 = -5x + 25

2. Add 4 to both sides, making y alone.

Y = -5x + 29

y=−9/2x+10

step-by-step explanation:

let's solve for y.

0−9x−2y=−20

step 1: add 9x to both sides.

−9x−2y+9x=−20+9x

−2y=9x−20

step 2: divide both sides by -2.

−2y

−2

=

9x−20
