Helena wrote the equation using point-slope form for the line that passes through the points (5, 1) and (3, 5). Analyze the steps of her work using the point-slope form to write the equation.

1. m = StartFraction 5 minus 1 Over 3 minus 5 EndFraction = StartFraction 4 Over negative 2 EndFraction = negative 2. 2. y minus 1 = negative 2 (x minus 3). Y minus 1 = negative 2 x + 6. y minus 1 + 1 = negative 2 x + 6 + 1. 3. y = negative 2 x + 7.

In which step did Helena make an error?
In step 1, she substituted the x values for y and the y values for x.
In step 2, she didn’t use an x and y from the same coordinate pair.
In step 3, she solved for the wrong variable.
Helena did not make an error.

The first few steps in solving the quadratic equation 9x2 + 49x = 22 ? 5x by completing the square are shown. 9x2 + 49x = 22 ? 5x 9x2 + 54x = 22 9(x2 + 6x) = 22 which is the best step to do next to solve the equation by completing the square? 9(x2 + 6x + 3) = 25 9(x2 + 6x + 3) = 49 9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 31 9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 103
