Find the equation of the line that goes through the points (2, 2) and (6, 6).
y = 6x + 2
y = -x
y = 2x + 6
y = x


Sagot :

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

y=6x+2

2=12+2

NO
y=-x

2=-2

NO

y=2x+6

2=4+10

NO

y=x

2=2

6=6

Answer:

[tex]y=x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where [tex]m=[/tex]slope and [tex]b =[/tex]y-intercept

To find the slope we use the slope formula:

[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

We plug in the coordinates getting:

[tex]\frac{6-2}{6-2} =\frac{4}{4} = 1[/tex]

So we have a slope of 1:

[tex]y=(1)x+b[/tex]

If we look at the answer choice we see that only one of them has a slope of 1 so the equation is:

[tex]y =x[/tex]
