The Deep Dive
To write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form, we first need to calculate the slope (m) using the formula: \[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \] For points (-3, 0) and (-2, 3): - Here \(x_1 = -3\), \(y_1 = 0\), \(x_2 = -2\), and \(y_2 = 3\). Plugging in the values: \[ m = \frac{3 - 0}{-2 - (-3)} = \frac{3}{1} = 3 \] Now, using the point-slope form \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\) with point (-3, 0) and slope 3: \[ y - 0 = 3(x + 3) \] \[ y = 3x + 9 \] For points (-6, 10) and (6, -10): - Here \(x_1 = -6\), \(y_1 = 10\), \(x_2 = 6\), and \(y_2 = -10\). Calculating the slope: \[ m = \frac{-10 - 10}{6 - (-6)} = \frac{-20}{12} = -\frac{5}{3} \] Using the point-slope form with point (-6, 10): \[ y - 10 = -\frac{5}{3}(x + 6) \] \[ y - 10 = -\frac{5}{3}x - 10 \] \[ y = -\frac{5}{3}x \] So, the equations of the lines are: 1. \(y = 3x + 9\) 2. \(y = -\frac{5}{3}x\)
