PLEEEEEEEEEEEESE HELP!!!!!! one easy math question!!!!!!!! pleeeeeeese !! 10 P best anwse!!!!!!

if they give us 2 points:

A( 5,-12) b(2,-1)

how do u graph it!???

i know u find the slpe. but what about the y intercept ?? how do u find that??


TANX

let's first review the slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b y being the y-value, m being the slope, x being the x-value, and b being the y-intercept. to find slope, you take (y value-y value)/(x value-x value)
(-12--1)/(5-2)
(-12+1)/(3)
-11/3 is the slope. now, find the y-intercept, or b, using one of the given values and the slope you found.
y=mx+b
-1=(-11/3)(2)+b
-1=(-22/3)+b
-3/3=(-22/3)+b
-19/3=b

plot the two given points and the y-intercept and connect the points to make a line.
