The slope intercept form of the line whose points are (1,5) and (-2,-4) is y=3x+2.
Given two points of a line (1,5) and (-2,-4).
We have to form an equation in slop intercept form.
Equation is relationship between two or more variables which are expressed in equal to form.Equations of two variables looks like ax+by=c.
Point slope form of an equation is y=x+mc where m is slope of the line.
From two points the formula of equation is as under:
(y-[tex]y_{1}[/tex])=[tex](y_{2} -y_{1} )/(x_{2} -x_{1} )[/tex]*(x-[tex]x_{1}[/tex])
where [tex](x_{1} ,y_{1} ) and (x_{2} ,y_{2} )[/tex] are the points.
Putting the values of [tex]x_{1}[/tex]=1, [tex]x_{2}[/tex]=-2, [tex]y_{1}[/tex]=5 and [tex]y_{2}[/tex]=-4.
y-5=(-4-5/-2-1)*(x-1)
y-5=-9/-3*(x-1)
y-5=3(x-1)
y-5=3x-3
y=3x-3+5
y=3x+2
Hence the slope intercept form of the line having points (1,5)(-2,-4) is y=3x+2.
