Answer:

The answer to your question is    y = -2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

A (1, 9)

B (3, 5)

- Find the slope

 m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

 m = \frac{5 - 9}{3 - 1}

 m = \frac{-4}{2}

        m = - 2

- Find the line equation

        y - y1 = m (x - x1)

        y - 5 = -2(x - 3)

        y - 5 = -2x + 6

        y = -2x + 6 + 5

        y = -2x + 11

Answer: y=-2x+11

Find the slope by: y1-y2/x1-x2

Plug in the number so
9-5/1-3 = 4/-2 =-2

So the slope is -2
Y=-2x+b
9=-2(1) +b
9=-2+b
b=11

Answer:Y=-2x+11

He determines that 6 is an extraneous solution because the difference of the numerators is 6, so the 6s cancel to 0. which best
seropon [69]

The question is incomplete. Completed question is given below the answer.

His solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

Given  

Then the solution follows thus:

Step 1: 8(x – 4) = 2(x + 2)

Step 2: 4(x – 4) = (x + 2)

Step 3: 4x – 16 = x + 2

Step 4: 3x = 18

Step 5: x = 6

It can be seen that his solution is correct. But 6 is not an extraneous solution.

An extraneous solution is a solution to an equation that emerges from the process of solving the problem but is not a valid solution to the original problem.

When 6 is substituted into the original equation, the original equation holds.

Therefore, his solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

#SPJ4

Completed question:-

A student solves the following equation for all possible values of x:His solution is as follows:

Step 1: 8(x – 4) = 2(x + 2)

Step 2: 4(x – 4) = (x + 2)

Step 3: 4x – 16 = x + 2

Step 4: 3x = 18

Step 5: x = 6

He determines that 6 is an extraneous solution because the difference of the numerators is 6, so the 6s cancel to 0.

Which best describes the reasonableness of the student’s solution?

His solution for x is correct and his explanation of the extraneous solution is reasonable.

His solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, both denominators have to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

His solution for x is correct, but in order for 6 to be an extraneous solution, one denominator has to result in 0 when 6 is substituted for x.

His solution for x is incorrect. When solved correctly, there are no extraneous solutions.
