A line passes through the points (2,4) and (5,6) .

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Option B and D are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A line passes through the points (2,4) and (5,6).

* Case 1:

If a line passes through the points (2, 4) and (5, 6)

Point slope intercept form:

for any two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$

then the general form $y -y_1=m(x-x_1)$ for linear equations where m is the slope given by:

$m =\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

First calculate slope for the points (2, 4) and (5, 6);

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{6-4}{5-2} = \frac{2}{3}$

then, by point slope intercept form;

$y-4=\frac{2}{3}(x-2)$

* Case 2:

If a line passes through the points (5, 6) and (2, 4)

First calculate slope for the points (5, 6) and (2, 4);

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{4-6}{2-5} = \frac{-2}{-3}= \frac{2}{3}$

then, by point slope intercept form;

$y-6=\frac{2}{3}(x-5)$

Yes, the only equation of line from the given options which describes the given line are;

$y-4=\frac{2}{3}(x-2)$ and $y-6=\frac{2}{3}(x-5)$

A line that passes through the point (x,y), with a y-intercept of b and a slope of m, can be represented by the equation y = mx

tester [92]

Answer:

b=-18

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line that passes through the point $P(x_o,y_o)$ and it has slope $m$ , the equation of the line is:

$y-y_o=m(x-x_o)~=>y=mx+y_o-mx_o~=>b=y_o-mx_o\\\\b=-6-4(3)=-18$
