Question

Which is not an equation of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (5, 5)?

Answer 1

Any equation of the line that is different from y=x is the solution to the problem.

Explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (5, 5)

m=(5-1)/(5-1)=1

step 2

Find the equation of the line into slope point form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have m=1

(x1,y1)=(1,1)

substitute

y-1=(1)(x-1)

y=x-1+1

y=x

therefore

Any equation of the line that is different from y=x is the solution to the problem.
