Let there exists a point (x, y) on the given line.
Slope of all points must be same, as they lie on the same line.
=> (y - 1)/(x - 2) = (4 - 1)/(-4 - 2)
=> (y - 1)/(x - 2) = - 1/2
=> y - 1 = (-½) (x - 2)
Option 1 is the correct option
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Exact Form:
x = 38/5
Decimal Form:
x = 7.6
Mixed Number Form:
x = 7/3/5
