Answer:
y = 8x - 26
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, - 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 6)
m = [tex]\frac{6+2}{4-3}[/tex] = 8 , thus
y = 8x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (4, 6) , then
6 = 32 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 32 = - 26
y = 8x - 26 ← equation of line
