Answer to Problem 4.4EP

The slope intercept form is y = x .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The line that passes through the pairs of point (-4 , -4) and (2 , 2).

Formula used:

Slope

  m=y2y1x2x1

Slope intercept form

  y = mx + b

Calculation:

Slope intercept form: The graph of the equation y = mx + b (where m and b are real numbers) is a line with slope, m, and y-intercept, b.This form of the equation of a line is called the slope-intercept form.

Formation of point (-4 , -4) and (2 , 2). into slope intercept form

  x1=4

  y1=4

  x2=2

  y2=2

Using slope formula to calculate slope of pair of points

  m=2(4)2(4)

On solving,

Slope

  m=1

Using slope intercept form formula to calculate Y-intercept

Use any one of the given points to calculate Y-intercept

Point (-4 , -4) taken to calculate Y-intercept

  y = mx + b

  -4=1(-4)+b

So,

  -4+4=b

On solving,

  b=0

Substituting value of b and m in the slope intercept form

  y = (1)x + 0

So,

  y = x

Hence, the slope intercept form is y = x
