Answer:

3x - y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m = deltay/deltax

m = (10 - 1)/[( 1 - (-2)]

m = 9/3 = 3

y = 3x + b

From (-2 | 1) we see that when x = -2, y = 1

Placing into the equation, in order to find b (y-intercept)

y = 3x + b

1 = 3(-2) + b

b = 7

y = 3x + 7 or 3x - y = -7

If point $\left(x,\ \frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}\right)$ is on the unit ircle, then:

$x^2+\left( \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} \right)^2=1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2+ \frac{7}{9} =1 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x^2=1- \frac{7}{9} = \frac{2}{9} \\ \\ \Rightarrow x= \sqrt{ \frac{2}{9} } = \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{3}$

Since, the point is in the second quadrant, x is negative.

Thus, $(x,\ y)=\left(x,\ \frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}\right)=\left(-\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{3},\ \frac{\sqrt{7}}{3}\right)$

Part A:

$3 \sqrt{7} =6\left( \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{2} \right) \\ \\ =6\left( \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} \cdot \frac{3}{ \sqrt{2} } \right) \\ \\ =6\left( \frac{ \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} }{ \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{3} } \right)=-6\left( \frac{ \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} }{ -\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{3} } \right) \\ \\ =-6\left( \frac{y}{x} \right)=-6\tan\theta$

Therefore, $-6\tan\theta=3\sqrt{7}$ .

Part B:

$- \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{2} =- \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} \cdot \frac{3}{ \sqrt{2} } \\ \\ =- \frac{ \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} }{ \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{3} } = \frac{ \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{3} }{ -\frac{ \sqrt{2} }{3} } = \frac{y}{x} \\ \\ =\tan\theta$

Therefore, $\tan\theta=- \frac{ \sqrt{7} }{2}$

Since an integer is a whole number, the numbers closer to 0 on the number line are -2 and -1, so there are 2 options.

The answer is 2 choices, in short.
