WHAT IS THE EQUATION IN SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM FOT THE LINE THAT PASSES THROUGH THE POINTS (2,-2) AND (-3,-17)

y = 3x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

to find slope the equation (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) is used

this means change of y over change of x

[-17 - (-2)] / (-3 - 2)

(-17 + 2) / -5

-15 / -5 = 3

the slope is 3

to find slope intercept form you must find the y intercept

using y = 3x + b and plugging things in we can find it

we can plug in the first point

-2 = 2(3) + b

b is your y intercept

-2 = 6 + b

b = -8

y = 3/1x - 8

steps:

(2,-2) (-3, -17)

x1. y1. x2. y2

y2-y1

x2-x1

-17 - -2 = -15. = 3

-3-2. -5. 1

(2,-2)

y= mx + b

-2 = 3/1(2) + b

-2 = 6 + b

-6 -6

-8 = b

y = 3/1x - 8
