Answer:

Answer is III line

$x - 3y - 7 = 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the line passes through (1,-2)

Hence when we substitute x=1 and y =-2 the equation should be satisfied

I equation

$3x - y - 7 = 0\\3(1)-(-2) \neq 7\\x - 3y + 7 = 0\\1-3(-2)+7 = 14 \neq 0x - 3y - 7 = 0\\1-3(-2)-7 =0\\$

Hence third equation is the correct answer.

The correct question is
What is the equation of a line, in general form, that passes through point (1, -2) and has a slope of 1/3

we have that
point (1,-2)
slope m=1/3
so
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y+2=(1/3)*(x-1)----> multiply by 3---> 3y+6=x-1
x-3y-1-6=0------> x-3y-7=0

the answer is
x - 3y - 7 = 0

   This is really easy.
x-4=8
   what it really is asking you is the value of x
   Isolate x
   take 4 to the other side. not -4 but positive 4
   x=12

Answer:

The length of minor arc AB is $\frac{10}{9}$ π ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the length of an arc in a circle is L = $\frac{\alpha }{360}$ × 2πr, where α is the central angle subtended by the arc, and r is the radius of the circle
