Which point is collinear with points B and C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

define the term: colinear

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(of points) lying in the same straight line.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

and im assuming since the points on the graph are not along the same lines, there are options to pick from?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. (0, 0) B. (1, 1) C. (1, –5) D. (6, –8)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if options, then we would do well to define an equation of a line between B and C

OpenStudy (amistre64):

or slope

OpenStudy (amistre64):

another method is more visual, draw a line and see which option is hit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c and b have the closet form to a straight line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c and b hit each other

OpenStudy (amistre64):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

0,0 and 1,1 are the better fits; what are your thoughts?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im kinda stuck between those two.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if the visual has its limitations, then we would need to use another method

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i can say with confidence tho that one of the better options is the best fit, and the other is just not good enough for me
