The equation of a line given two points needs to be found. Samuel claims that slope-intercept form will generate the equation and Helena claims that point-slope form will find the equation. Who is correct? Explain your reason by describing both forms.

Please help me with this question.

Respuesta :

The answer is:put the equation xa+yb=1 to the slope intercept form and find its slope and y-intercept.

Sample Answer: Both are correct. Using either form will result in the same equation. The slope-intercept form uses slope and a point to find the y-intercept. Point-slope form uses the slope and a point to solve for y to generate the equation.
