Answer 8

yeah

Answer 9

Tell me which one is x1, x2, y1, and y2. I want you to label them.

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

idk

Answer 12

i got it the first one is c

Answer 13

Okay, x1 means the first x coordinate. and x2 is the 2nd. Set up the equation like this.\[\frac{ -1-4 }{ -8-0 }\]
now solve
