A line passes through the points (–5, 2) and (10, –1). Which is the equation of the line?

1 answer:

3 0

We have y - 2 = m(x + 5), where m = (-1 - 2)/(10 + 5) = -3/15 = -1/5;
Then y - 2 = (-1/5)(x + 5);
5y - 10 = (-1)(x + 5);
5y - 10 = -x - 5;
x + 5y - 5 = 0 is the equation of the line.

rodikova [14]

PEMDAS (order of operations rules) require that we perform operations in a certain order: anything inside parentheses first, followed by any exponentiation, followed by mult. and div., finally followed by addition and subtraction.

Thus, we must evaluate 5+8÷4-1 first, as it's inside parentheses. Focusing on the division first, we get 5+8÷4-1 = 5 + 2 - 1, or 6.

Then we have 5 - [6], which comes out to -1.
