Question

WILL MARK BRAINLEST!!!!!!!!!! AHHH HELP PLEASEEE

The slope between two points (A,2) and (4,B) is 2/3. What is the value of A and B if B is 3 units bigger than A?


A= 4 and B= 1

A= 1 and B = 4

A = -4 and B= -1 (wrong answer I tried and got it wrong)

A= -1 and B= 4


Thank you so much!!

Answer 2

Answer:

A=1, B=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, (A,2) (4,B) slope = 2/3 B=A+3

Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

= (B-2) / (4-A)

= (A+3-2) / (4-A)

= (A+1) / (4-A)

= 2/3

Cross multiplying,

3*(A+1) = 2*(4-A)

3A+3 = 8-2A

5A=5

A=1

B=A+3=1+3=4
