In general, if a line passes through the points (a, b) and (c, d), its equation can be written as:
y - b = [(d - b)/(a - c)](x - a)
In this case, however, the formula is not necessary -- and in fact, attempting to apply it in its current form would result in a division by zero error. Instead, however, we can simply note that from (-2, 9) to (-2, 7) the x-coordinate does not change. This can only be the case if the line is vertical, meaning that the x-coordinate never changes. The line can therefore be represented by the equation x = -2.
A straight line through the points (0, 1) and (-0.4, 0).
The answer depends on how the information is presented. If in the form of a graph, it must be a straight line through the origin. If in the form of an equation, it must be of the form y = cx.
Since we know the intercepts, its best to solve the general form first and then convert to the standard form. The intercepts tell us that for some constant, a y=a*(x+2)(x-6) We also know that the parabola must run through a given point (1,8) so we can plug that value in to get our value of a 8=a*(3)(-5) a=-8/15 Next, expand the formula and start moving numbers around until you are in standard form y=-8/15*(x²-4x-12) y=-8/15*((x-2)²-16) y=-8/15*(x-2)²+128/15
y = (x-4)(x-4) * * * The factors above are shown correctly. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line passing through the vertex, which is the point located at (4, 0). The equation of that line is x = 4, which is the answer you requested.
3s=2t can also be written as 3y=2x or 3x=2y. Either way, it is linear. To find out if it is linear, simply graph it. If you can draw a completely vertical line through any point of the graph without intersecting more than one point of the graph, then it is linear. This equation (3s=2t), it is linear.
I need step by step on my graphic calculator on how to write an equation
that's a verticle line cuz the x stays the same so it is X=-2
The standard form is: 5x - y + 4 = 0
The standard form is Ax + By = C. The slope of the line is (9-7)/(-2 - (-2)) or 2/0. This indicates that this is a vertical line whose x intercept is -2. The equation of the line is then x = -2.
The standard form of the equation is 2x - y + 5 = 0
(3,1)(3,2)

You use slope intercept (y=mx+b) to find yourb(y-intercept) 4=-4.5(0) + b 4=b therfore y=-4.5x + 4. Then you change it into standard form (Ax + By = C) y= -4.5x +4 4.5x + y =4 is your answer.
If you mean of points of (3, -4) and (5, 1) then the equation works out as 2y=5x-23
If you mean a point of (0, 3) and a slope of 2 then the equation is y = 2x+3
Y=2/3x - 7
Points: (2, 2) and (6, 3) Slope: 1/4 Equation: y = 1/4x+3/2 In standard form: x-4y+6 = 0
