Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (4,1) and (-6,9). Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.​

Sagot :

Answer:

Find the slope:

  • [tex]m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} = \frac{9 - 1}{-6 - 4} = -\frac{8}{10} = -\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Use point-slope form and one of the points:

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
  • [tex]y - 1 = -\frac{4}{5}(x - 4)[/tex]
