Write and equation of the line that passes through the pair of points (4,6) and (-1,1)

y = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula:

Step 1: Find slope m

m = (1 - 6)/(-1 - 4)

m = -5/-5

m = 1

y = x + b

Step 2: Find y-int b

y = x + b

1 = -1 + b

b = 2

Step 3: Rewrite equation

y = x + 2

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient is 1/2

Rise/run=1/2=1/2

y=1/2x

y intercept

There is no intercept because it goes through the number 0

y=1/2x
