Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope using the two given points and the slope equation.
[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}=\frac{17-8}{19-10}=\frac{9}{9}=1[/tex]
We can enter [tex]m[/tex] into our slope-intercept form now.
[tex]y=mx+b\\y=1x+b\\y=x+b[/tex]
Now, plug in one of the given points to solve for b.
[tex]8=10+b\\b=-2[/tex]
So our final form is:
[tex]y=x-2[/tex]
Hope this helps!
