Answer:
y = 9x - 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, - 38) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, 61)
m = =
= 9, thus
y = 9x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (8, 61), then
61 = 72 + c ⇒ c = 61 - 72 = - 11
y = 9x - 11 ← equation of lie

Answer:
Total displacement = 2.52 kilometers [south east]
Step-by-step explanation:
By the Pythagorean Theorem:
keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, and that parallel lines have equal slopes, well, those two slopes above aren't either, so since they're neither, and they're different, that means that lines A and B intersect.
