Answer:
The answer is explained below
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete we need point P and point Q.
let us assume P is at (3,1) and Q is at (-2,4)
To find the coordinate of the point that divides a line segment PQ with point P at and point Q at
in the proportion a:b, we use the formula:
line segment PQ is divided in the ratio 5:3 let us assume P is at (3,1) and Q is at (-2,4). Therefore:
Answer:
y = x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 7)
m = =
= 1, hence
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation.
Using (1, 4), then
4 = 1 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 1 = 3
y = x + 3 ← equation in slope- intercept form
