Write an equation of the line with the given characteristics.

Passes though (8,2), (6,-5)

The equation would be y=7/2x - 26.

y = 3.5x - 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Use rise over run to find the slope: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the 2 points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-5 - 2) / (6 - 8)

-7/-2

= 3.5

Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b to find b:

y = mx + b

2 = 3.5(8) + b

2 = 28 + b

-26 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b

y = 3.5x - 26 is the equation of the line

the highest percentage for deaths in construction from highest to lowest is as follows: falls, struck by objects, electrocution, and caught-in/between. these four are collectively known as fatal four.

in the case of falls, the type that is responsible for the overall highest death in the category is falls from roofs.
