Question

Question 3 (1 point) A line passes through the points (0, - 4) and (2, - 11). If (x, y) is an arbitrary point on the line other than (0, - 4), which equation can you write for the line based on the fact that the slope of a line is constant? оа Y-0 x- (-4) 7 2 Ob y- (-4) x-0 7 2 Ос y-10 2 Il x- (-4) Od y-(-4). 2 7 X-0

Answer 1

Explanation:

we apply the slope formula:

$m\text{ = }\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The points: (0, - 4) and (2, - 11)

$\begin{gathered} x_1=0,y_1=-4,x_2=2,y_2\text{ = }-11 \\ m\text{ = }\frac{-11-(-4)}{2-0} \\ m\text{ = }\frac{-11+4}{2} \\ m=\frac{-7}{2} \end{gathered}$

The equation of the line becomes:
