Answer: y = 21x + -105 or y = 21x - 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equation is going to be in the format of y = mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

For this, you can find the slope by doing

(y₁-y₂)÷(x₁-x₂)

So we just sub in one of the x intercept points and the point that we already have, so let's do (-21-0)/(4-5). That is equal to 21, therefore, 21 is our slope.

So we have y = 21x + b, so now we can sub in one of our points for y and x in the equation. Let's do (4,-21).

-21 = 21(4) + b

-21 = 84 + b

-105 = b

So our equation is y = 21x + -105, meaning we have a slope of 21 and a y intercept of -105.

Edit: you can also do y = 21x - 105

Barry is trying to calculate the distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7). Which of the following expressions will he us

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Option (1) is correct.

Barry uses the expression " square root of the quantity of 7 minus 1 all squared plus 4 minus 3 all squared " to find the distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Barry is trying to calculate the distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7).

Distance between two points can be calculate using distance formula,

Distance formula states given two points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) the distance between P and Q can be calculated using the given expression ,

$D=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}$

Thus, distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7) can be calculate using above formula as ,

Here, a= 3 , b= 1 , c = 4 and d = 7

$D=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}$

Substitute above values, we get,

$D=\sqrt{(4-3)^2+(7-1)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{(1)^2+(6)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{37}$

Thus, Barry uses the expression " square root of the quantity of 7 minus 1 all squared plus 4 minus 3 all squared " to find the distance between point E(3, 1) and point F(4, 7).

Thus, Option (1) is correct.
