Which Is An Equation In Point Slope Form Of The Line That Passes Through The Points 4 5 And 3 1

help me plz!!

Solution


first find the slope by subtracting the y values and then dividing by the subtracted x-values 5- -1            4 ——-   =   —- 4- -3           7 then choose either point and substitute it into the point slope formula   y-y1=m(x-x1) if I choose (4,5)    the equation is     y-5= (4/7) (x-4) or if I choose (-3,-1), the equation is   y+1 = (4/7)(x+3) both are correct, you do not need to simplify further
