Slope point form :
To put in slope point form, label any of the points as either X1,y1 and X and y, then plug in those values into the following equation form.
Y - y1 = m(X-X1)
But before, we must solve for the m value or slope.
M = y2-y1/x2-X1
M = 5/2 - -1/2 / -1/2 - 3/2.
M = 5/2 + 1/2 / -(1/2+3/2)
M = 6/2 / -(4/2)
M = 3/-2
Now we can place it in slope point and also in standard form of a line.
Y-y1 = m(X -X1)
Y - -1/2 = -3/2(X - 3/2)
Y + 1/2 = -3/2(X - 3/2)
This is in slope point form.
Y + 1/2 = -3/2x + 9/4
Y + 1/2 - 1/2 = -3/2x + 9/4 - 1/2
1/2 = 2/4
Y = -3/2x + 7/4
-3/2x = -6/4x
Y = -6/4x + 7/4
Y • 4 = 4( -6/4 X + 7/4)
4y = -6x + 7
4y + 6x = -6x + 6x +7
6x + 4y = 7
This is in standard form. If you have any questions of the steps just ask.
The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.
1) Distribute the 2.
6x + 4 = 2x – 16
2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16
3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12
4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3
To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.
Answer:
A) but it is not a good choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't like A much. An Isosceles triangle has 2 congruent sides. If all three are congruent, it is equilateral.
Of the three choices however, it is A. B is a scalene triangle and C is as stated, equilateral.
