Be aware that arclength usually has a difficult function to integrate. Most integrable functions look like the above where a binomial is squared and adding the two terms will flip the sign of the binomial.

The correct answer would be C: 1 2/5
Answer:
(-1/4, 19/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+6=9x+7
-4x=1
x= -1/4
y=5(-1/4) +6
y=19/4
