Which of the point-slope equations below are correct for the line that passesthrough points (5, 6) and (1, 1)?Check all that apply.(5,6)(1.1)Answer choices A.y+6=(x+5)B. y-1=(x-1)C. y-1=/(x+1)D. Y+5=(x-6)E. y-6=(x-5)F. y-1=(x-1)

Respuesta :

[tex]y-6=\frac{5}{4}(x-5),\:y-1=\frac{5}{4}(x-1)[/tex]

1) We need to pick those points (5,6) and (1,1) and find the slope of the line that passes through them.

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{1-6}{1-5}=\frac{-5}{-4}=\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

2) Now, we can plug the slope into the Point-Slope form and pick one of those points:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (y_-y_1)=m(x-x_1) \\ \\ (y-6)=\frac{5}{4}(x-5) \\ \\ y-6=\frac{5}{4}(x-5) \\ \\ ----- \\ y-1=\frac{5}{4}(x-1) \\ \\ y-1=\frac{5}{4}(x-1) \\ \\ y-1=\frac{5}{4}(x-1) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Once we find the slope, any of those points are suitable. The first option considers point (5,6) and the other one, point (1,1).

3) Thus, this is answer
