the point slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (-9,-2) and (1,3) is y-3=1/2(x-1). What is the slope-intercept form of the equation for this line

Respuesta :

Answer:

y= 1/2x + 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We already have the point-slope form of the line.

Convert into Slope Intercept form:

y-3=1/2(x-1)

[tex]y-3=\frac{1}{2}x -0.5\leftarrow \text {Distribute}\\y-3+3=\frac{1}{2}x-0.5+3\leftarrow \text {Subtraction Property of Equality} \\\boxed{y=\frac{1}{2}x+2.5} \text { OR } \boxed{y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}}[/tex]
