Answer:
Infinite number of rational numbers exist between any two distinct rational numbers. We know that a rational number is a number which can be written in the form of qp where p and q are integers and q =0.
Answer: y = -6x + 2
m = y_2 - y_1
/ x_2 - x_1
-10 - 8
/ 2 - (-1)
= -18/3 = -6
m (slope) = -6
y = mx + b
y = -6x +b
Find b using (-1,8)
y = -6x +b
8 = -6(-1) + b
8 = 6 + b
-6 -6
2 = b
Final answer: y = -6x + 2
To check using one of the points: (-1,8) or (2,-10)
y = -6x + 2
-10 = -6(2) + 2
-10 = -12 + 2
-10 = -10
This is a true statement.

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of line passing through the two points is 
When substituted,the equation becomes 
which when simplified is 
The line clearly passes through origin.
The distance between two points is 
Distance between origin and
is
.
Distance between origin and
is 
Scale factor is 
So,scale factor is 
which when simplified becomes 3.
