Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = (10 - 5)/(-9 + 15) = 5/6
y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept
b = y - mx
b = 5 - (5/6) (-15)
b = 5 +12.5
b = 17.5
Equation y = 5/6 x + 17.5
Y-intercept = 17.5
X-intercept when y = 0
So
5/6 x + 17.5 = 0
5/6 x = -17.5
x = (-17.5) (6/5)
x = -21
Answer
Y intercept (0, 17.5 )
X intercept (-21 , 0)
First find the new coordinates for P and Q after the translations:
P'(2 + 3, 4 - 4) = P'(5, 0)
Q'(-3 + 3, 2 - 4) = Q'(0, -2)
Now, find the slope from this:
(0 - (-2))/(5 - 0) = 2/5
The slope has remained the same. It is important to note that after any translation, the slope will always remain the same. However, this is not always so for rotations and reflections.
