Answer:
y=16x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:
(1,17) and (2,33).
First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:
y = mx+b
Where:
m is the slope, and
b is the y-intercept
First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...
The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.
For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:
So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (1,17), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=1 and y1=17.
Also, let's call the second point you gave, (2,33), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=2 and y2=33.
Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:
m=
33 - 17/ 2 - 1
or...
m= 16/
1
or...
m=16
So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:
y=16x+b
Now, what about b, the y-intercept?
To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:
(1,17). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 17.
(2,33). When x of the line is 2, y of the line must be 33.
Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?
Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=16x+b. b is what we want, the 16 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (1,17) and (2,33).
So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.
You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:
(1,17). y=mx+b or 17=16 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=17-(16)(1). b=1.
(2,33). y=mx+b or 33=16 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=33-(16)(2). b=1.
See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.
The equation of the line that passes through the points
(1,17) and (2,33) is y=16x+1
![(7+2i)(3-i)\\(7*3)+[7*(-i)]+(3*2i)+[2i*(-i)]\\21-7i+6i-2i^{2}\\\\21-i-2i^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%287%2B2i%29%283-i%29%5C%5C%287%2A3%29%2B%5B7%2A%28-i%29%5D%2B%283%2A2i%29%2B%5B2i%2A%28-i%29%5D%5C%5C21-7i%2B6i-2i%5E%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C21-i-2i%5E%7B2%7D)
, then the expression becomes:
