  1. Determine an equation in slope-point form for each relation represented below.





The graph of Relation 1 has a slope of «math style=¨font-family:`Times New Roman`¨ xmlns=¨http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML¨»«mstyle mathsize=¨16px¨»«mo mathcolor=¨#B94A48¨»-«/mo»«mfrac mathcolor=¨#B94A48¨»«mn»4«/mn»«mn»3«/mn»«/mfrac»«/mstyle»«/math» and passes through the points (−5,7), (−2,3), (1,−1), (4,−5), and (7,−9). Any of these points could be entered into the slope-point equation. The equation shown uses (−5,7).
