Demystifying - The line through two points

Drills

Finding the gradient from the two points, then the intercept from either.

Author note — to cover

Find the equation of the line through two given points: gradient from the coordinate differences first, then c from either point, checking with the unused one; include negative and fractional answers. Midpoints of the same segment belong to the coordinates group. Both tiers. (A9)
