Equation is y=118x+6118

Slope m=118

Explanation:

To write the equation of the line we need the following:

  • Ordered pairs
  • Slope m=y2y1x2x1

Given (11,4)and(7,3)

Slope m=347(11)

m=118

We can write equation of the line, using point slope formula
yy1=m(xx1)

y4=118(x(11))

y4=118x+1118

Solve for y

y=118x+1118+41

y=118x+41118

y=118x+6118
