Question

A line passes through the point (–7, 5) and has a slope of 1/2. Which is another point that the line passes through?

a.(–13, 9)
b.(–9, 13)
c.(9, 13)
d.(13, 9)

Answer 1

c.(9, 13)

Explanation:

i just took the quiz on edge

Answer 2

If the line has a slope of 1/2 then equation is y=1/2x+b
If the line pass through the point (-7;5) then 5=1/2*(-7)+b
b=5+7/2
b=8.5
y=1/2x+17/2
Let's find which is another point that the line passes through:
a)9=-13*1/2+17/2=4/2=2
9≠2
b)13=-9*1/2+17/2=8/2=4
13≠4
c) 13=9*1/2+17/2=26/2=13
13=13
d) 9=13*1/2+17/2=30/2=15
13≠15
the line passes through c.(9, 13)
