Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
to determine if the points are collinear, determine the rate of change(slope) between (-2, -9) and (0, -4) and then the rate of change between (0, -4) and (3,6) and rate of change between (-2, -9) and (3, 6). if the rates are equivalent then the points are all collinear
between (-2, -9) and (0, -4):
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(-4-(-9))/(0-(-2))
=5/2
between (0, -4) and (3,6):
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(6-(-4))/(3-0)
=10/3
because 5/2 does not equal 10/3 the rates of change are not equal and the points are not collinear, do not need to consider slope between (-2, -9) and (3, 6)
