Answer: y = -6x + 2
m = y_2 - y_1
/ x_2 - x_1
-10 - 8
/ 2 - (-1)
= -18/3 = -6
m (slope) = -6
y = mx + b
y = -6x +b
Find b using (-1,8)
y = -6x +b
8 = -6(-1) + b
8 = 6 + b
-6 -6
2 = b
Final answer: y = -6x + 2
To check using one of the points: (-1,8) or (2,-10)
y = -6x + 2
-10 = -6(2) + 2
-10 = -12 + 2
-10 = -10
This is a true statement.

Answer: 54 degrees (third choice)</h3>
Explanation:
AB is a diameter of circle C. This leads to angle ACB being 180 degrees. By Thales Theorem (a special case of the inscribed angle theorem) we know that angle D is 90 degrees.
Therefore, triangle ADB is a right triangle. The acute angles (A and B) add to 90, and we can say they are complementary angles.
A+B = 90
36+B = 90
B = 90-36
B = 54 degrees
