1) Find the graph of a line passing through (-1, 4) and (2, 0).
The slope of two points can be determined by dividing the difference of y-values by the difference of x-values:
The slope of this equation is -4/3. Inputting this into the slope-intercept form of an equation, we get:
To find b, substitute x and y for one of the given coordinate pairs:
0 = (-4/3)(2) + b
0 = -8/3 + b
8/3 = b
Substitute the b value into the equation to finish the line:
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance between 2 points
☆ (x₁, y₁) is the first coordinate while (x₂, y₂) I'd the second coordinate.
Length of RS
Thus, RS is about 8.5 units.
