Answer:
Part 1) There are infinity locations for the point B
Part 2) see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) How many possible locations are there for point B?
we know that
The equation of a line in point slope form is equal to
where
substitute
Convert to slope intercept form
Point B can be any point ( different from point A) that satisfies the linear equation
therefore
There are infinity locations for the point B
Part 2) Describes a method to location the point
To locate the point, one of the two coordinates must be known. The known coordinate is placed into the linear equation and the equation is solved to find the value of the missing coordinate
Example
Suppose that the x-coordinate of point B is 4
For x=4
substitute in the linear equation
so
The coordinates of point B is (4,10.5)
Answer:
what do you want me to do there's no question
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
see explanations
Step-by-step explanation:
The given blue line has a slope of m = -1/2.
The line parallel to the given line passing through point (x0,y0)=(2,3) is given by the point-slope form:
(y-y0)=m(x-x0)
substitute values
(y-3) = (-1/2)(x-2)
Expand and transpose
y = (-1/2)x + 1 + 3
y = (-1/2)x + 4 ....................(1)
We choose the second equation b. x+2y=8 and convert to slope-intercept form:
2y=-x+8
y = (-1/2)x + 4, which is exactly equation (1)
So
b. x+2y=8 is the correct answer.
