Answer

y=4x10 is the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the points (2,2) and (3,2).

Steps

Step 1 :The slope-intercept form of a line is given by y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Step 2 :The slope of a line passing through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be calculated using the formula m=y2y1x2x1.

Step 3 :Substitute the given points into the formula: m=2(2)32=4.0.

Step 4 :Once we have the slope, we can substitute one of the points into the equation to solve for b.

Step 5 :Substitute the point (2,2) and the slope into the equation: 2=42+b, solve for b, we get b=10.0.

Step 6 :Substitute m=4.0 and b=10.0 into the slope-intercept form, we get the final equation of the line: y=4x10.

Step 7 :y=4x10 is the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the points (2,2) and (3,2).
