Answer:
Explanation at the bottom
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope with the 2 points use this ---> [tex]\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex] Ex: Points (9, 3) (6, 12) --> write it this way [tex]\frac{12 - 3}{6 - 9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{-3}[/tex] = -3 so -3 would be the slope of that line.
Then to find the y- intercept use the slope and the numbers from one of the points like this ----> y = mx + b we are looking for b.
(plugging in the first point) (using the point (9,3))
3 = -3(9) + b
3 = -27 + b (add 27 on both sides)
30 = b (that's your y- intercept)
(Full equation is)
y = -3x + 30
