Math Example--Linear Function Concepts--The Equation of a Line Given Two Points: Example 13 | Math Example--Linear Function Concepts--The Equation of a Line Given Two Points: Example 13TopicLinear Functions DescriptionThis image shows a graph with two points (2, -4) and (6, -2) marked. The example demonstrates how to find the equation of a line passing through these points. The slope is calculated as 1/2, and the point-slope form is used to derive the equation of the line. The slope formula is used: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-2 - (-4)) / (6 - 2) = 2 / 4 = 1/2. Then, using the point-slope form: y - (-2) = (1/2)(x - 6), which simplifies to y = (1/2)x - 5. |

The example demonstrates how to find the equation of a line passing through these points. The slope is calculated as -1, and the point-slope form is used to derive the equation. The slope formula is used: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-3 - (-6)) / (2 - 5) = 3 / -3 = -1. Then, using the point-slope form: y - (-3) = -(x - 2), which simplifies to y = -x - 1. |

The example demonstrates how to find the equation of a horizontal line passing through these points. The slope is calculated as 0, and the point-slope form is used to derive the equation. The slope formula is used: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-4 - (-4)) / (7 - 3) = 0 / 4 = 0. Then, using the point-slope form: y - (-4) = 0(x - 3), which simplifies to y = -4. |
