Use the equation y = mx +c
y = 2/3x +c              Substitute the slope (m) in
5 = 2/3(-2) +c          Substitute the point (-2,5)
5 = -4/3 +c               Make C the subject
c = 19/3

y = 2/3x + 19/3        This is the equation of the line.

Next you start subbing the points A and B in separately, using the same equation.

Subbing A(x, 3)
3       = 2/3x + 19/3         Make x the subject to find it.
-10/3 = 2/3x
     -5 = x

The point A is (-5,3)

Subbing B(-2, y)
y = 2/3(-2) + 19/3           y is already the subject and you just solve it
   = -4/3 + 19/3
y = 5

The point B is (-2, 5)

Suppose someone tells you that she has a triangle with sides having lengths 2.2, 4.5, and 6.7. Is this a right triangle?
laila [671]
You can apply the Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
c is the longest side of the triangle
2.2^2 + 4.2^2 = 6.7^2
4.84 + 17.64 = 44.89
22.48 =/= 44.89
That is not a right triangle
