If you graph the end points C and D then graph the 4 points at the end it is difficult to tell which points are on CD without a line.  
Using the endpoints find the slope (change in y/ change in x) then substitute a point in to find the intercept.  
Slope = (-6-4)/(6- -8) = -5/7
Intercept equation (-6) = -5/7 (6) + b
b = -1.71428571429
Graphing the line shows only 2 points on the line (–2.75, 0.25) and <span>(0.75, –2.25)
I am confused by the part, "</span><span>P is the length of the line segment from D".  Were you given a length P to help you determine which point.  Using the distance formula to find the length from each point to D doesn't help determine which one is best with the information you have given.  The image shows the distances I calculated and the graphed points. 
I hope this helps!</span>

Which equation represents a line that passes through the two points in the table x 1,5 and y 1,6
aleksandrvk [35]

For this case we must find a linear equation of the form:

y = mx + b

Where,

m: slope of the line

b: cutting point with vertical axis.

For the slope we have the following equation:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}

Substituting values we have:

m = \frac {6-5} {1-1}\\m = \frac {1} {0}

We observe that the slope of the line is not defined.

Therefore, the line is vertical.

Thus, the equation of the line is given by:

x = 1

Answer:

The equation of the line is given by:

x = 1

If two supplementary angles are in the ratio of 4:5 the measure of the larger angle is
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be 4x , 5x

4x + 5x = 180   { supplementary}

      9x = 180

        x = 180/9

        x = 20

Larger angle= 5x = 5* 20 = 100
