1 Answer
Using the Two Coordinate Equation
Explanation:
The Two Coordinate Equation
The two coordinate equation's general form is written as:
Applied to Your Example
In your case
If we put these values into the equation we get:
Now we need to rearrange into the form
First simplify the denominator of both fractions to get:
Next multiply both sides by -4 to get:
Now multiply both sides by -5 to get rid of the other fraction:
#-5y+30 = -4x+24
Next we take away 30 from both sides to get
Now multiply by -1 to change the signs:
Lastly divide by 5 to get a single
