What is the equation of the straight line that passes through (2,1) (5,7)
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the equation of a straight line

Step 1: find the slope

( 2 , 1) ( 5 , 7)

x_1 = 2

y_1 = 1

x_2 = 5

y_2 = 7

Insert the values into the equation

m = (y_2 - y_1 )/ (x_2 - x _1)

m = (7 - 1 )/ (5 - 2)

m = 6/3

= 2

Step 2: substitute m into the equation

y = mx + c

y = 2x + c

Step 3 : sub any of the two points given into the equation

Let's use ( 2, 1)

x = 2

y = 1

y = 2x + c.

1 = 2(2) + c

1 = 4 + c

c = 1 - 4

c = -3

Step 4: sub c into the equation

y = 2x + c

y = 2x - 3

A rectangular prism measures 8 inches by 8 inches by 12 inches. What is it's surface area
Arlecino [84]
64 inches is the correct answer. To get it you need to multiply the length times the width.

(this is incorrect. Sorry for the inconvenience)

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-1,7) and is parallel to the line y= -2x-1
Nuetrik [128]

if we look at the equation y = -2x - 1, is already in slope-intercept form, therefore, \bf y=\stackrel{slope}{-2}x-1 has a slope of -2.


now, parallel lines have exactly equal slopes, therefore a parallel to that one above, will have also a slope of -2, so we're really looking for a line whose slope is -2 and runs through -1, 7.


\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{7})\qquad \qquad \qquad slope =  m\implies -2\\\\\\\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-7=-2[x-(-1)]\\\\\\y-7=-2(x+1)\implies y-7=-2x-2\implies y=-2x+5
