Find the equation of the line that goes through the
following two points
(16,-3), (-3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

So to find the equation of this line we must first find the slope

to find the slope with two points you do y2-y1/x2=x1

so (0+3)/(-3-16)

-3/19ths will be your slope

Now we have one part of the equation, we still need to find the y intercept. Remember the slope intercept equation goes like this: y=mx+b. Where m is your slope and b is your y-intercept. So in order to find the y-intercept, we just use one of the points already given and solve for b

like so:

0=-3/19(-3)+b

-3  -3  = 9

19  1      19

0 = 9/19+b

subtract 9/19 from both sides

and b is -9/19

so your equation will go like this: y=-3/19x-9/19
