The Solution.
Representing the problem in a diagram, we have
By formula,

In this case,

Substituting these values in the formula above, we get

Clearing the bracket, we get



Dividing both sides by 2, we get

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
Answer:
mee
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 3x + 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 9, - 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 6, 0)
m =
=
= 3, thus
y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the line
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (- 6, 0), then
0 = - 18 + c ⇒ c = 0 + 18 = 18
y = 3x + 18 ← equation of line
