What is the equation of a line that contains points (1,7) and (5,3)

y=x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope.

= =-1

Then plug your slope and one of the points into point slope form.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-7=1(x-1)

y-7=x-1

y=x+6

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
