Question

Which is the equation of the line that contains points (8, 10) and (–4, 2)? y-8=3/2(x-10 ) y-10=3/2(x-8) y-10=2/3(x-8) y-8=2/3(x-10)

Answer 1

y-10=2/3(x-8)

This is because the slope is 2/3 and the point (8, 10) would be used properly here.

Answer 2

Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Two points are (8,10) and (-4,2)

We need to find the equation of line that contains the above points.

We will use "Two point slope form":

`y-y_1=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)(x-x_1})\\\\y-10=(2-10)/(-4-8)(x-8)\\\\y-10=(-8)/(-12)(x-8)\\\\y-10=(2)/(3)(x-8)`

Hence, our required equation of line would be

`y-10=(2)/(3)(x-8)`

Therefore, Third option is correct.
