Write the equation of the line that passes through the points

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$y+5=2(x-3)$ or $y+9=2(x-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

we have the ordered pairs

(3,-5) and (1,-9)

substitute the values

$m=\frac{-9+5}{1-3}$

$m=\frac{-4}{-2}$

$m=2$

step 2

Find the equation in point slope form

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

Analyze two cases

First case

we have

$m=2$

$point\ (3,-5)$

substitute

$y+5=2(x-3)$

Second case

we have

$m=2$

$point\ (1,-9)$

substitute

$y+9=2(x-1)$

Note: The equation of the line in point slope form varies according to the point you choose, in contrast to the slope-intercept form

A complex number is a number that can be written in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers. In the complex number 4 + 2

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

In the complex number 4 + 2i, 4 is the real part. In the complex number 4 + 2i, 2 is the imaginary part.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two parts of the complex number are called the real part and the imaginary part. The imaginary part is identified by its multiplier of i.

In the given number, the 2 is multiplied by i, so 2 is the imaginary part. The other part, 4, is the real part.
