Using the given points, find the slope:
Slope Equation: m = Δy/Δx
m = (4 - 0)/(8 -(-8)) ⇒ Solve
m = 4/16 ⇒ Simplify
m = 1/4
Using the point-slope equation, solve for the line:
Point-Slope Equation: y - y1 = m (x - x1)
Using Point 1 (-8, 0):
y - 0 = 1/4 (x - (-8))
y - 0 = 1/4 (x + 8) ⇒ Distribute
y = 1/4x + 8/4 ⇒ Simplify
y = 1/4x + 2
Answer: y = 1/4x + 2
Answer:
First finding the slope and the y-intercept. Then we can write the equation in slope-intercept for which is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Given two points (0,8) and (-8,-4). (0,8) is the y intercept which is the value of b. Since we have found the y-intercept, To find slope of these two points.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-4-8)/(-8-0)
m = (-12)/(-8)
m = 12/8
m = 3/2
So, the equation is y = 3/2(x)+8 and has been fully reduced.
