How can you find an equation line between two pair of points?
Assuming you want the equation of the straight line between the two points (x0, y0) and (x1, y1), the equation is: y - y0 = m(x - x0) where m is the gradient between the two points: m = (y1 - y0) ÷ (x1 - x0) Note: if the two x coordinates are equal, that is x0 = x1, then the equation of the line is x = x0.
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 :)
Why can't you use two data points to write the equation of a line?
Actually, two separate points are enough to determine the line.
What method can be used to write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form given two points?
You can follow the following steps. * First, you determine the slope between the two points. Just calculate delta-y / delta-x (that is, difference in y-coordinates, divided by the difference in x-coordinates, between the two points). * Next, you use the point-slope formula, to get an equation for the line. You can use any of the two points for this; each of the points will give you an equation that looks different, but the two equations are equivalent, if you do everything correctly. * Finally, solve the resulting equation for "y"; that will give you the equation in slope-intercept form.
How do you write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line passing through each pair of points?
y=mx+c where x and y are variables, m is the gradient (or slope) and c is the intercept on y (axis). that is the general equation of a straight line. if you had given some coordinates for the points one could extrapolate from that to find the full equation. since you have not, one cannot.
What two variables do you need to know to determine the gradient between two points on a map?
The height of the land, and the scale of the map

How can you get a linear equation from 3 coordinates?
You cannot. You need four coordinates (two horizontal and two vertical) to uniquely identify two points. Having identified the two points, you can determine the slope (or gradient) as [difference in vertical coords]/[difference in horizontal coords] Then use this slope (m) and either of the two points in the equation y = mx + c to determine the value of c.

What are points on a line for geometry?
In coordinated geometry the points on a straight line will determine its equation.
A line is the locus of points which what?
A line is the locus of points such that the gradient (slope) between that point and one fixed point in the plane is a constant. Technically, that definition does not include a vertical line because its gradient is not defined! You could get around that this by requiring that either the gradient is a constant or, if it is undefined, then the inverse gradient (dx/dy) is constant.
How do you determine if the points on a graph are invalid?
Plug the x-values into the original equation. If you get the same y-values, then the points are valid.

Will any 4 points on a graph produce a Cubic equation?
Any 4 points in the Cartesian plane determine a unique equation that is of degree at most three (i.e., a "cubic" equation). It is, of course, possible that the 4 points actually lie on a degree two ("quadratic"), a degree one ("linear"), or a degree zero ("constant") equation. However, if the 4 points do not lie on a constant, linear, or quadratic curve, then they will like on a unique cubic curve. In general, N points will determine a unique curve of degree at most (N-1).
When you have three collinear points there is exactly one?
When you have three collinear points there is one gradient. I'm not sure what your question is specifically but when points are collinear they have the same gradient.
