In a rectangular coordinate system, if a line passes through the points (-17,-18), (13,22) and (x,2) then what is the value of x?
Answer/Solution
-2
Steps/Work
The slope of the line m is rise/run = 22-(-18) / 13-(-17) = 4/3
4/3 = 22-2 / 13-x
52-4x = 66-6
x = -2
The answer is A.
4/3 = 22-2 / 13-x
52-4x = 66-6
x = -2
The answer is A.
