Question

Hi, can you please help me with my math? Please help me please that's all I'm asking and thank you so much.

Answer 1

Ok we can writue the equation of the second point and replace x=18 and the solution must be -8, if isnt the solution the line doesnt pass through the point

calculate the parallel line to second point

the slope is -2/3

we replace on the general equation of the line and replace the point C(3,2)

`\begin{gathered} y=-(2)/(3)x+b \\ (2)=-(2)/(3)(3)+b \end{gathered}`

and solve for b

`\begin{gathered} 2=-2+b \\ b=2+2 \\ b=4 \end{gathered}`

the parallel line on the second point is

`y=-(2)/(3)x+4`

Third point

replace x=18

`\begin{gathered} y=-(2)/(3)(18)+4 \\ y=-12+4 \\ y=-8 \end{gathered}`

so this graph has the point (18,-8), then the line pass through E
