Observe the graph; the line is passing through (4, 3) and (7, \"\"2). \"Graph\"\"

\

The line equation in slope-intercept form is \"\", where m is the slope and b is

\

the y-intercept.

\

First find the slope (m).

\

The slope formula is \"\".

\

\"\"                           (Replace \"\" with 4, 3, 7 and \"\"2)

\

\"\"                              (Subtract: \"\" )

\

\"\"                                 (Subtract: \"\")

\

The slope of \"\".\"\"

\

Next find the y-intercept (b).

\

\"\"                          (Substitute \"\" for m)

\

\"\"                      (Substitute 4, 3 for x and y)

\

\"\"                         (Multiply: \"\")\"\"

\

Apply addition property of equality: If a = b than a + c = b + c.

\

\"\"    (Add \"\" to each side)

\

Apply commutative property of addition: \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\"                       (Apply Additive inverse property: \"\")

\

\"\"                             (Apply Additive identity property: \"\")

\

\"\"                                   (Add: \"\")\"\"

\

 Substitute \"\" for m and \"\" for b in the Slope-intercept form equation

\

\"\" \"\"

\

The equation in slope-intercept form is \"\".
