GCSE Maths - Finding the Equation of a Straight Line From 2 Sets of Coordinates #69

This video tutorial explains how to find the equation of a line given two coordinates. It covers the process of calculating the gradient (slope) and the y-intercept to form the equation in the format Y = MX + C. The tutorial includes two example problems to demonstrate the method, emphasizing the steps of finding the gradient, using it to calculate the y-intercept, and forming the final equation.
