Question

Select all points that are on the line through 0,5

and 2,8.


4,11
5,10
6,14
30,50
40,60​

Answer 1

1, 3 and 4. I had the same question on my assignment :)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Options (1), (3), and (4)

Explanation:

Since, slope of a line passing through two points
`(x_1,y_1)` and
`(x_2,y_2)` is given by,

m =
`(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)`

Therefore, slope of a line passing through (0, 5) and (2, 8) will be,

m =
`(8-5)/(2-0)` = 1.5

Equation of line passing through (x', y') and slope 'm' is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Therefore, equation of a line passing through (0, 5) and slope = 1.5,

y - 5 = 1.5(x - 0)

y = 1.5x + 5

Since, all the points which lie on this line will satisfy this equation.

For (4, 11),

11 = 1.5(4) + 5

11 = 11

Point (4, 11) lies on this line.

Point (5, 10)

10 = 1.5(5) + 5

10 = 7.5 + 5

10 = 12.5

But 10 ≠ 12.5

Therefore, (5, 10) doesn't line on the line.

Point (6, 14)

14 = 1.5(6) + 5

14 = 14

True.

Therefore, (6, 14) lies on the line.

Point (30, 50)

50 = 1.5(30) + 5

50 = 50

True.

Therefore, (30, 50) lies on the line.

Point (40, 60)

60 = 1.5(40) + 5

60 = 65

But 60 ≠ 65

Therefore, (40, 60) doesn't lie on the line.

Options (1), (3) and (4) and the correct options.
