Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If a point (x, y) lies on a straight line, coordinates of the point will satisfy the equation.
Slope of a line passing through two points C(4, 5) and D(8, 10),
m =
m =
m =
Equation of the line passing through C(4, 5) and slope m =
y - y' = m(x - x')
y - 5 =
y =
y =
If point B(4, 0) lies on the line CD,
0 =
0 = 5
Which is not true.
Therefore, point B doesn't lie on line CD.
