Find the equation of the line passing through the points A (2,1) B (7,9)
1 answer:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 1 = 1³/₅(x - 2) Point - Slope Form
y - 1 = 1³/₅(x) - 1³/₅(2)
y - 1 = 1³/₅x - 3¹/₅
+ 1 + 1
y = 1³/₅x - 2¹/₅ Slope - Intercept Form
-1³/₅x - y = 1³/₅x - 1³/₅x - 2¹/₅
-1³/₅x - y = -2¹/₅
-1(-1³/₅x - y) = -1(-2¹/₅)
-1(-1³/₅x) + 1(y) = 2¹/₅
1³/₅x - y = 2¹/₅ Standard Form
1³/₅(0) - y = 2¹/₅
0 - y = 2¹/₅
-y = 2¹/₅
-1 -1
y = -2¹/₅ Y - Intercept
(x, y) = (0, -2¹/₅)

Given:
The vertex of a triangle MNP are M(-4, 6), N(2, 6), and P(-1, 1).
The rule of dilation is:
The image of triangle MNP after dilation is M'N'P'.
To find:
The coordinates of the endpoints of segment M'N'.
Solution:
The end points of MN are M(-4, 6) and N(2, 6).
The rule of dilation is:
Using this rule, we get
And,
The endpoints of M'N' are M'(-6, 9) and N'(3, 9).
Therefore, the correct option is B.
