Question

Use the slope formula to find the missing coordinate. r(0, _), s(-4, 2) m = 5

Answer 1

Let, the missing coordinate = x
m = y2-y1 / x2-x1
5 = x - 2 / 0-(-4)
5 = x-2/4
x-2 = 5*4
x = 20 + 2
x = 22

In short, Your Answer would be 22

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: 22

Explanation:

The slope of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

`m=(d-b)/(c-a)`

The given points : r(0, _), s(-4, 2)

Slope : m=5

let the missing coordinate be y.

Then , the slope of a line passing through two points r(0, y), s(-4, 2)is given by :-

`5=(2-y)/(-4-0)\\\\\Rightarrow\2-y=5*-4\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=20+2=22`

Hence, the missing coordinate of r = 22.
