complete the equation of the line through (3, -8) and (6,-4).
use exact numbers.

y = 4/3x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the line, we do (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

If we put in the values, we'll get

(-4 - -8) / (6 - 3)

Simplify and get

(-4 + 8) / 3

4 / 3

Your slope is now 4/3, so you can put it into your equation y = mx + b

y = 4/3x + b

To find b, we can plug in the values from one of your points. Lets use (3, -8)

-8 = 4/3 * 3 + b

Now solve the equation

-8 = 4 + b

-12 = b

Now that you have b, your equation is complete:

y = 4/3x - 12
