9189.15 ft (this is the answer and I have not rounded it)
-2=x1 7=y1 -8=x2 4=y2
Y=Mx+b
Y2-y1 = 4-7 =-3
X2-x1 = -8-(-2) = -6
M (slope) = 3
Use the coordinate (-8, 4)
Y = MX + B = 4 = 3(-8) + b
4 = -24+ B
Add 24 to both sides to keep your equation balanced
B equals 28
Y = 3X + 28
-4 -2 = -4 + (-2) = -6
As you see here, -6 does not equal 46, therefore, this equation has no solution.
-6 ≠ 46
Final answer:- No solution to this equation.
The answer is B. He is incorrect because he should have only 5 factors of 3.
