PLEASE HELP!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 16 POINTS!!

Complete the equation of the line through (3,-1) and (4,7). Use exact numbers. What does "y" equal?

Respuesta :

Answer:

lets start with finding the slope

m=7-(-1)/4-3

m=8

now we can choose either of the 2 points given and the slope and plug that into the point slope form

y-7=8(x-4)

y-7=8x-32

y=8x-25

and that is your equation

Answer:

y = 8x - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is y = mx + b

To find the slope use y2-y1/x2-x1

When you plug it in it will be 7 + 1/4 - 3 (8)

Now it is y = 8x + b

Lastly you need to plug in a coordinate to the equation to find b

7 = 8(4) + b (-25)
