The first step of writing an equation when given two points is the same for both strategies, slope-intercept or point-slope forms. What would be the first step in finding the equation of the line that passes through (5, 1) and (3, 5)?
m = -7✔ -21/22
b = -14-8✔ 27
y = (1/2)x – 8✔ y = -2x + 2y = 2x – 14y = -2x – 8
y = –3x + 5y = 3x – 5 y = one-third x + 3 y = negative one-third x + 5




y = x + 67 = –1(–1) + by – 4 = –1 (x – 2)y – 7 = –1 (x – (–1))y – 2 = x – 4y = –x + 6
