PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Points (-2, 4) and (-1,1) lie on the same line. Which of the following equations represents the line?
A. y - 1 = -}(x + 1)
B. y - 1 = -3(x + 1)
C. y - 1 = -}(x - 1)
D. y - 1 = -3(x - 1)

A

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways you can do this. I'll show you one!

1. Find the Slope

      a. use the slope formla: (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

               (4-1)/(-2-1)= 3/-3= -1

      This eliminates both B and D, as their slopes are -3

2. Now analyze the last 2 equations

        a. A goes through the ordered pair (-1, 1)

        b. C goes through the ordered pair (1, 1)

        The line we want goes through (-1, 1), so  A is the correct answer!

answer: 48
