the line has a slope of 16/11. if one of the points on the line is (-1,6), which of the following would describe two points on the line? A: (-5,-6) B: (4,11) C: (0,2) D: (10,22)

Timmyspu:

ok so what do you think sounds the least likely to be right

darkknight:

You have the slope and one point, you can use point-slope form. Do you know what that is?

darkknight:

no ofc not, thats why we are here to help

darkknight:

So point slope form \[y-y1=m(x-x1)\] Where (x1, y1) is the coordinate and m is the slope

darkknight:

We need to plug in the coordinate and slope values, and write the equation in terms of y after that
