Concept explainers
Find an equation of the line that passes through the points.Also,use the slope − intercept form (if possible).If not possible,explain why and use the general form.Also,use a graphing utility to graph the line (if possible).
Answer to Problem 54E
The equation of the line that passes through the points is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
It is given in the question that the two coordinates are
Concept Used:
In this ,use the conept of slope equation and the point - slope form and the formula used is
Calculation: Use the slope formula to solve for the slope,
Now ,use the point − slope form,
And the y − intersept is
The graph will be ,
Conclusion:
The equation will be
