3 0

First, isolate y:
2x - 3y = 6
-3y = -2x + 6
3y = 2x - 6
y = 2/3x - 2
That means that the line passes through the point (0, -2) and has a positive slope of 2/3. So it would be choice A because the line in choice A passes through the point (1, -2) and has a positive slope. Choice D also passes through the point (0, -2) but has a negative slope so it cannot be the correct answer.
Choice A is correct.

What is the length of the radius of a circle with a center at 2 + 3i and a point on the circle at 7 + 2i?

dem82 [27]

You can calculate the difference/vector of both points:
$7+2i-(2+3i)=5-i$
then calculate the magnitude/length like pythagoras
$radius=\sqrt{5^2+(-i*-i)}\\=\sqrt{5^2+i^2}\\=\sqrt{5^2-1}\\=\sqrt{24}\\=\sqrt{4*6}\\=2*\sqrt{6}$
