(-3,-5)(2,4)
slope(m) = (4 - (-5) / (2 - (-3) = (4 + 5) / (2 + 3) = 9/5

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 9/5
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
sub
y - 4 = 9/5(x - 1)....this is the correct answer

the student figured the slope wrong....it is 9/5...not -9/5

Find the volume of a rectangular prism if the length is 3x2, the width is 2x, and the height is x2 + 3x + 5. Use the formula V =
AURORKA [14]
You are given the length of a rectangular prism of 3x^2, width of 2x and height of x^2 + 3x +5. You are required to find the volume of a rectangular prism. Using the equation V = l x w x h, we multiply the three dimensions.  

V = l x w x h
V = (3x^2)(2x)( x^2 + 3x +5)
V = 2x (3x^4 + 9x^3 + 15x^2)
<u>V = 6x^5 + 18x^4 + 30x^3</u> <u> </u>
<u>The volume of the rectangular prism is 6x^5 + 18x^4 + 30x^3.</u>
