(- 5, - 6 ) or (- 5, 10 )

using the distance formula

d = √(x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, y )

d = √(- 5 - 1 )² + (y - 2 )² = 10

d = √36 + (y - 2 )² = 10

square both sides

36 + (y - 2 )² = 100 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

(y - 2 )² = 64

take the square root of both sides

y - 2 = ± 8 ( add 2 to both sides )

y = 2 ± 8

y = 2 + 8 or y = 2 - 8 ⇒ y = 10 or y = - 6

coordinates of A = (- 5, - 6) or (- 5, 10 )

Which equation represents the line that passes through the points (-3, 7) and (9,-1)? oy--3x+5 o y=-x-7 o y=zx-7 oy - 12 2x+5​
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  -  \frac{2}{3} x + 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation we must first find the slope of the line.

So the slope of the line using points (-3, 7) and (9,-1) is

<h3>m =  \frac{ - 1 - 7}{9 + 3}  =  -  \frac{8}{12}  =  -  \frac{2}{3}</h3>

Now we use the formula

<h3>y - y1 = m(x - x1)</h3>

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is any of the points given

So the equation of the line using point

( - 3 , 7) and slope - 2/3 is

<h3>y - 7 =  -  \frac{2}{3} (x + 3) \\ y - 7 =  -  \frac{2}{3} x - 2 \\ y =  -  \frac{2}{3} x - 2 + 7</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>y =  -  \frac{2}{3} x + 5</h3>

Hope this helps you

a.

12 × 4 = 48

(6 × 4) ÷ 2 = 12

48 + 12 = 60

b.
