What is the equation of the line passing through the points (-1,2) and (-2,-1)

Mathematics

The equation will be of the form y=ax+b, but we have to find a and b.
If you fill in the first point, you get:

2 = -a + b => b = 2+a

Second point:

-1 = -2a + b

Fill in first into second

-1 = -2a + 2 + a => -3 = -a => a=3

b = 2+a = 2+3 = 5

so the equation is

y=3x+5

Once you have this, it is safe to fill in both coordinates to double-check for mistakes.

50 POINTS! QUICKLY Are the pairs of variables x and y the solutions to the equation x^2–2y=7?
Fittoniya [83]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{(5,8) \text{ and } (1.2, -2.78)}}

We are given the equation:

x² - 2y = 7

To verify if each ordered pair is apart of the function, we can plug in their respective x and y values:

1. (5)² - 2(8) = 7

25 - 16 = 9 ≠ 7. This is NOT correct.

2. (-1)² - 2(-3) = 7

1 + 6 = 7. This is correct.

3. (-4)² - 2(-11.5) = 7

16 + 23 = 39 ≠ 7. This is NOT correct.

4. (1.2)² - 2(-2.78) = 7

1.44 +5.56 = 7. This is correct.

Thus, only 1 and 4 are the correct answers.
