scoundrel [369]

$\frac{x + 4}{7} -\frac{x + 3}{x + 5} =\frac{(x + 4)(x + 5)}{7(x + 5)} -\frac{7(x + 3)}{7(x + 5)} =\frac{x(x + 5) + 4(x + 5)}{7(x) + 7(5)} - \frac{7(x) + 7(3)}{7(x) + 7(5)} =\frac{x(x) + x(5) + 4(x) + 4(5)}{7x + 35} - \frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 5x + 4x + 20}{7x + 35} -\frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 9x + 20}{7x + 35} - \frac{7x + 21}{7x + 35} =\frac{(x^{2} + 9x + 20) - (7x + 21)}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + (9x - 7x) + (20 - 21)}{7x + 35} =\frac{x^{2} + 2x -1}{7x + 35}$

If two points on line l above have coordinates (0, A) and (2, −3), and the slope of the line is A, then what is the value of A?

Vlada [557]

Answer:

A = -1

So, option (B) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points on line have coordinates: p (x₁, y₁) = (0, A) and q(x₂, y₂) = (2 , -3)

Slope of line = A

Slope of line = $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1}}$
