Find the equation of the through the point (-4,3) and (2,-2)?

Answer 1

Passing through the points: (-4, 3) and (2, -2)

Slope: -5/6

Equation: y = -(5/6)x -1/3 or 6y = -5x -2

Answer 2

The equation of the line through (-4, 3) and (2, -2):

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) 

m = (3 - (-2))/(-4 - 2) 

m = 5/-6 

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Answer 3

You mean the line through both points?  Its slope is -5/6, so you have

5x + 6y = B, where B is then obviously -2.

An equation of the line is 5x + 6y + 2 = 0.

More conventionally, it's y = -5x/6 - 1/3.
