<u>We know that:</u>

Slope of a line = change in y coordinate / change in x coordinate

<u>We are given:</u>

First point = (2,5)

Second point = (5, 14)

<u>Calculating the change in y coordinate:</u>

change in y (also represented by Δy) = second y - first y

Δy = 14 - 5

Δy = 9

<u>Calculating the change in x coordinate:</u>

Δx = second x - first x

Δx = 5 - 2

Δx = 3

<u>Slope of the line:</u>

Slope = (Δy) / (Δx)

Slope = 9 / 3                                              [replacing the values]

Slope = 3

4x + 4y + 2z = 8
Vikentia [17]
The answer is no, because the first two equations are right but the third equation equals -16 instead of -15. So the answer is no (2,-2,4) is not the solution to all the system of equations.
