(-4, 16), (2, -11)
First, find the slope of the line.
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = [16 - (-11)]/(-4 - 2) = 27/-6 = -27/6
Use the point-slope form of the equation of the line with m = -27/6, x1 = 2 and y1 = -11.
((y - y1) =m(x - x1) substitute;
y - (-11) = -(27/6)(x - 2)
y + 11 = -(27/6)x + 54/6
y + 11 - 11 = -(27/6)x + 9 - 11
y = -(27/6)x - 3 This is the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line.
The general form of the equation of the line is: Ax + By + C = 0 where A, B, and C are real numbers, and A and B are not both zero.
So, you have:
y = -(27/6)x - 3
y + (27/6)x + 3 = -(27/6)x + (27/6)x - 3 + 3
y + (27/6)x + 3 = 0
(27/6)x + y + 3 = 0

How do you prove two points are equidistant to a line if the line goes through the midpoint of the two points?
The line goes through the midpoint, which is halfway between points. The distances are equal to each other, and proves that they are equidistant.

How do you make a linear equation go through three points?
In general, a linear equation CANNOT be made to go through three points. That will only happen if the three points are collinear and in that case, the equation of the line will only require two points.

In maths what is the name of a straight line from a point on a graph?
For any line, there needs to be two points. If the line passes through points and extends in both directions forever, it's a line. If the line just goes between the two points, its called a line segment. If the line goes through both points but only extends in one direction, it's a ray.
