Question

I NEED HELP FAST I HAVE TO TURN IT IN IN 5 mins

Line m is shown on the coordinate plane.
Are the following statements about Line m true or false?
Two will go in each category.

Answer 1

True:

The slope of the line is
`(4)/(5)`

The ordered pair (60,48) is on Line m

False:

The slope of the line is
`(5)/(4)`

The ordered pair (70,58) is on Line m

Explanation:

First we can find slope by using
`(rise)/(run)`

rise was 4 on the first even point on the line and the run or y axis was 5 so slope is
`(4)/(5)`

Now we can see what points are on the line by making an equation y=mx+b

slope is m and b is 0 since the line intersects with the origin

`y=(4)/(5) x`

Now we enter the coordinates to see which is true

`48=(4)/(5) (60)\\48=(240)/(5) \\48=48`

So (60,48) is on the line

`58=(4)/(5) (70)\\58=(280)/(5) \\58=56`

This not true so (70,58) is not on the line

Hope this helps let me know if you have questions
