Answer:
Vladimir and Robyn both are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us check whether the points (-5,-3) and (10,9) are on the line or not.
The equation of the straight line passing through the given points (-5,-3) ans (10,9) is
⇒ 5(y - 9) = 4(x - 10)
⇒ 5y = 4x + 5
⇒ .............. (1)
So, Vladimir is correct.
Now, Robyn says that the line passes through the points (-10,-7) and (-15,-11).
Then, both of the points satisfy the equation (1).
Therefore, Vladimir and Robyn both are correct. (Answer)
For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It is the slope of the line
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
We have the following points through which the line passes:
We find the slope of the line:
Thus, the equation of the line is of the form:
We substitute one of the points and find b:
Finally, the equation is:
