Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (5, -4) and (1, -2)

y=-3/2x-.5

Step-by-step explanation:

(5,-4) and (1,-2)

Step 1: find slope:

-4-2/5-1=-6/4=-3/2

y=mx+b

y=-3/2x+b

2.: Plug in point

(1,-2)

-2=-3/2*1+b

-2=-3/2+b

-2+3/2=b

b=-.5

sas (side angle side)

aa (angle angle)

sss(side side side)

sas find two sides with an angle in between

aa is finding two angles and the third will add up to 180

sss find all sides
