Given:

A line passes through the points (2,-1) and (1,-5).

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

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

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

The line passes through the points (2,-1) and (1,-5). So, the equation of the line is

y-(-1)=\dfrac{-5-(-1)}{1-2}(x-2)

y+1=\dfrac{-5+1}{-1}(x-2)

y+1=\dfrac{-4}{-1}(x-2)

y+1=4(x-2)

Using distributive property, we get

y+1=4(x)+4(-2)

y+1=4x-8

Subtract 1 from both sides.

y+1-1=4x-8-1

y=4x-9

Therefore, the correct option is B.

B^2 = 36 - (2 Root 3)^2

B^2 = 24

B = 2 root 6

Base x Height / 2 for area of Triangle

2 root 3 x root 24 = 12 root 2

When two probabilities
Ivenika [448]

Answer: True  

Step-by-step explanation: Because if we have two independent events and want to know the probability of their happening at the same time, we multiply the two probabilities together.  "Two events happening at the same time" is a compound event.  We more often see this as "P(xy)," the probability of x AND y.
