Answer:
y= 2x - 43
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to assume that you want this in y=mx+b form.
Let's look for (m), the slope first.
The slope formula is [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
[tex]y_2[/tex] = -11
[tex]y_1[/tex] = -13
[tex]x_2[/tex] = 16
[tex]x_1[/tex] = 15
[tex]\frac{-11-(-13)}{16-15}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-11+13}{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex] = 2
The slope is 2. --> y=2x+b
Let's substitute points in to fit b.
y= -11
x = 16
-11=2(16)+b
-11=32+b
b=-43
y= 2x - 43
