Answer:

Choice B: A triangle

Choice C : A shape with two edges, one straight and one curved

Step-by-step explanation:

When a cone is cut by a plane that runs exactly through its vertex, and perpendicular to its base, the shape that is obtained is an isosceles triangle, when the section is viewed.

When a cone is cut through a plane that runs perpendicularly to its base, but not through its vertex, we can get two different shapes which have parabolas or hyperbolas as their curved edge, and a straight edge which is formed from the base of the cone

Answer:

y = (5/3)x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope (rise over run):

m = (-9 - (-14)) / (0 - (-3)) = (-9 + 14) / (0 + 3) = 5/3

Use the point-slope form equation with the given points (-3, -14):

y + 14 = (5/3)(x + 3)

or optionally in slope intercept form:

y = (5/3)x - 9
