What is the equation of the line that passes through (4, -1) and (-2, 3)?

2 x + 3 y - 5 = 0
-2 x + 3 y - 5 = 0
2 x - 3 y - 5 = 0

Respuesta :

Answer:

2x + 3y - 5 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

(4 , -1)  & (-2,3)

[tex]Slope =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_1}}\\\\=\frac{3-[-1]}{-2-4}\\\\=\frac{3+1}{-6}\\\\=\frac{4}{-6}\\\\=\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]

m = -2/3;   (4 , -1)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

[tex]y - [-1]= \frac{-2}{3}(x-4)\\\\y + 1 =\frac{-2}{3}x -4*\frac{-2}{3}\\\\y + 1 =\frac{-2}{3}x+\frac{8}{3}[/tex]

Multiply the equation by 3

3y + 3 = -2x + 8

3y = -2x + 8 - 3

3y = -2x + 5

2x + 3y - 5 = 0
