To find the slope of the line:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(14-5)/(4-1)=(9)/(3)=3
Only one of your 4 possible answers has 3 as a slope. However, plugging in each point into the y=mx+b equation, the y-intercept consistently comes out as 2..
y=mx+b
14=3(4)+b b=2
5=3(1)+b b=2
y=3x+2
If there is a consistent, positive slope (from your question, this does not seem to have a quadratic as an option), 3x+5 is not even a viable solution because x=1 when the y-value is 5 (and thus no other x value {0} could have a y-value of 5). It seems as though you have a typo on your hands. Hopefully this helps?
Answer:
(4,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
let J(6,6) be x1, y1
let K(2,-4) be x2, y2
midpoint = (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2
=(6+2)/2 ,(6-4)/2
= 8/2 ,2/2
=4, 1
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
the absolute value of -3 is 3
so; 3*|-3| =3*3 =9
