Two points A (-2, 9) and B (4, 8) lie on a line l. (i) Find the slope of the line l. (2)marks (ii) Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the points A and B (iii) Find the distance between points A and B. (i). A line “t” is parallel to 3y = 6x + 9. Find the slope of this line “t”. (ii) Another line “r” is perpendicular to the line 3y = 6x + 9. Find the gradient of the line “r”.

Question 1:

The coordinates are A(-2,9) and B(4,8)

(i) Slope =

Slope =

Slope =

Slope =

(ii) M(x,y) =

=> M(x,y) =

=> M(x,y) =

=> M(x+y) = (1 , 8.5)

(iii) Distance Formula =

D =

D =

D =

D = units

Question 2:

(i) The given equation is:

=> 3y = 6x+9

=> 3y = 3(2x+3)

Dividing both sides by 3

=> y = 2x+3

Where Slope = m = 2 and y-intercept = b = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes

=> So,  Slope of line "t" = 2

(ii) Line 3y = 6x+9 has a slope of 2

=> Perpendicular lines have a slope of negative reciprocal such that multiplying their slopes will give -1

=> Gradient of line "r" = -1/2

step-by-step explanation:

. your answer will contain x - and y -terms. (1 point) x ( ¿¿ 2 − 7 ) 2 +( y 2 − 9 ) 2 √ ¿ 12. what is the distance from the directrix (the crocodile river) to the point ( x , y )? write this equation. your answer will contain a y -term.

answer: domain and range mean all possible values of x and y that could be substituted to the inequality. a solution means all possible values that make the inequality statement true. so while the range is still all real numbers, the solution is the shaded area, for which y will always be greater than the line of the function.
