A line passes through the points (-1, -1)

Mathematics

Allisa [31]3 years ago

Given:

A line passes through the points (-1, -1) and (5,8).

To find:

Which points lie on the same line?

Solution:

If a line passes through two points, then the equation of the line is:

y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

A line passes through the points (-1, -1) and (5,8). So, the equation of the line is:

y-(-1)=\dfrac{8-(-1)}{5-(-1)}(x-(-1))

y+1=\dfrac{8+1}{5+1}(x+1)

y+1=\dfrac{9}{6}(x+1)

y+1=\dfrac{3}{2}(x+1)

Multiply both sides by 2.

2(y+1)=3(x+1)

2y+2=3x+3

2y=3x+3-2

y=\dfrac{3}{2}x+\dfrac{1}{2}

So, the equation of the line is y=\dfrac{3}{2}x+\dfrac{1}{2}.

Now, check each point for this equation.

Putting x=-3, we get

y=\dfrac{3}{2}(-3)+\dfrac{1}{2}

y=\dfrac{-9+1}{2}

y=\dfrac{-8}{2}

y=-4

Similarly,

For x=9,y=15.

For x=1,y=2.

For x=4,y=6.5.

For x=3,y=5.

For x=-2,y=-2.5.

Therefore, the points (-3,-4), (9,14), (1,2) and (3,5) lie on the same line but the points (4,7) and (-2,-2) are not on that line.

The formula for converting the temperature in Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius is given by the formula C=5/9(F-32), where c is the
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

(C * 9/5) + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, going from fahrenheit to celcius, you have to Deduct 32, then multiply by 5/9. So just reverse it, instead, you multiple it by the reciprocal, which is "9/5" then you add 32. Simple. :)

Solve 9y = 27 How can you find the value of y
Bumek [7]
You need to divide 9 to both sides in order for y to come alone. So then you would have to divide 27 by 9 and y = 3. Hope this helps!

This graph shows a proportional relationship.<br> What is the constant of proportionality?
krek1111 [17]

hookes law gives the equation F=kx where F is the elastic force and k is the constant and x or small e is extension if we draw a graph you'll see that the graph increases by the same ratio every single time hence giving a straight line show that they are F and x are propotional to a certain limit

givi [52]

Answer:

19/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquí, queremos escribir el número total de millas que Hans corrió en forma de una fracción impropia.

Para hacer esto, agregamos todas las millas recorridas.

Matemáticamente, eso sería 3 + 4/5 = 3 4/5 Esta es la forma de fracción mixta.

La fracción impropia es así (5 * 3) + 4/5 = 19/5
