There are several ways and one of the ways is as follows:-

Let the coordinates be (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) for (-1, -6) and (-3, -5)

(y-y1)/(y2-y1) = (x-x1)/(x2-x1)

(y--6)/(-5--6) = (x--1)/(-3--1)

(y+6)/(1) = (x+1)/(-2)

y+6 = -1/2x -1/2

y = -0.5x-6.5

The above equation can be written in the form of x+2y+13 = 0

Remember that a minus minus is equal to a plus so for instance -5--6 = 1

How can you find equation of the line passing thruogh two points?

. the equation of a straight line can be found by using two points on a line . First find the gradient of the line using the gradient formula . now substitute the gradient into general form replacing "m" . use one of the points and substitute into equation to solve "c" example 1: find the equation of the line which passes through the points (1,3) and (2,5). step 1: find the gradient M=5-3/2-1=2 (/=divide) step 2: place m into the equation Y=2x+c step 3: substitute point into equation 3=2(1)+c step 4: solve C=1 equation is Y=2x+1 hope that helps :)

Which set of points are on the line y 8x - 8?

To find the set of points on the line described by the equation ( y = 8x - 8 ), you can substitute various values of ( x ) into the equation to find corresponding ( y ) values. For example, if ( x = 0 ), then ( y = -8 ), giving the point ( (0, -8) ). If ( x = 1 ), then ( y = 0 ), giving the point ( (1, 0) ). Thus, the points ( (0, -8) ) and ( (1, 0) ) are on the line.

Find the equation of the line below.2-1?

To find the equation of a line, you typically need a point and a slope. If the line is represented in the form (y = mx + b), where (m) is the slope and (b) is the y-intercept, you can substitute the values accordingly. If you provide specific points or characteristics of the line, I can help you derive the exact equation. Please clarify the details related to "2-1."
