Which equation below is not an equation that represents the graph shown below? line through the points (0, 0) and (2, 1) Choose one answer. a. y - 3 = 2(x - 6) b. y + 3 = 1/2(x + 6) c. 2y = x d. x - 2y = 0

OpenStudy (jchick):

I know it is either A or B but not sure which

OpenStudy (jchick):

@Nnesha can you help me with this?

Nnesha (nnesha):

okay did you find slope ??

OpenStudy (jchick):

Yeah 1/2

Nnesha (nnesha):

so which is suppose to be ??

OpenStudy (jchick):

B I misunderstood the question

Nnesha (nnesha):

\[\huge (y - y _{1}) = m(x-x _{1})\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

here m is slope

OpenStudy (jchick):

They really want to know which one it isn't

Nnesha (nnesha):

wait

Nnesha (nnesha):

i didn't say that b is right :O

OpenStudy (jchick):

I know but B is the one that would be if they were looking for the correct answer

OpenStudy (jchick):

Or the one that makes the most sense

Nnesha (nnesha):

look at your order pair (0,0) ( 2,1) so if you put this in x1 and y1 how how that suppose to look like ?

Nnesha (nnesha):

ohhh okay

Nnesha (nnesha):

well for that you can replace x and y in the equation by both order pair one by one

Nnesha (nnesha):

|dw:1423105105039:dw| solve this if both side equal then try other order pair
