About this lesson
This video is another in the General Maths Units 1 and 2 course looking at how to find the equation of a straight line using only two coordinates (or points!). Building on past content, I take a look at how you can use the equation y=mx+c alongside two coordinates on a graph to find the equation of the line. I show you two different ways of doing this (the hard way and the easy way) with a number of worked examples all explained in my own unique way!
