What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (3, −5) and (−8, 4) ?

ANSWER



or



EXPLANATION

We want to find the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (3, −5) and (−8, 4).

The point-slope form is given by;



where



is the slope of the line.

If



The point-slope form is



On the other hand, if


Then the point-slope form is,



These two equations are the same when simplified.
