  1. Question Prompt: Question prompt: Which of the following equations represents a line that passes through the points (3,0)(-3,0) and (9,8)(9,8)?
  2. Calculate Slope: First, let's find the slope mm of the line that passes through the points (3,0)(-3,0) and (9,8)(9,8) using the slope formula m=y2y1x2x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.
  3. Check Equation I: Using the points (3,0)(-3,0) and (9,8)(9,8), we calculate the slope as follows:\newlinem=809(3)=812=23.m = \frac{8 - 0}{9 - (-3)} = \frac{8}{12} = \frac{2}{3}.
  4. Check Equation I: Now, let's check equation I, y=23x+3y = \frac{2}{3}x + 3, to see if it passes through both points. We will substitute the xx-values of the points into the equation and see if we get the corresponding yy-values.
  5. Check Equation II: For point (3,0)(-3,0), substituting x=3x = -3 into equation I gives us y=(23)(3)+3=2+3=1y = \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)(-3) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1. This does not equal the yy-value of the point, which is 00. Therefore, equation I does not pass through the point (3,0)(-3,0).
  6. Rewrite Equation II: For point (9,8)(9,8), substituting x=9x = 9 into equation I gives us y=(23)(9)+3=6+3=9y = \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)(9) + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9. This does not equal the yy-value of the point, which is 88. Therefore, equation I does not pass through the point (9,8)(9,8).
  7. Check Equation II: Now, let's check equation II, 4x6y=124x - 6y = -12. We can rewrite this equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+by = mx + b) to make it easier to compare with the slope we found earlier.
  8. Check Equation II: To rewrite equation II in slope-intercept form, we solve for yy:4x6y=124x - 6y = -126y=4x12-6y = -4x - 12y=(46)x+2y = \left(\frac{4}{6}\right)x + 2y=(23)x+2.y = \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)x + 2.
  9. Check Equation II: To rewrite equation II in slope-intercept form, we solve for yy:
    4x6y=124x - 6y = -12
    6y=4x12-6y = -4x - 12
    y=46x+2y = \frac{4}{6}x + 2
    y=23x+2y = \frac{2}{3}x + 2.Now, let's check if equation II in the form y=23x+2y = \frac{2}{3}x + 2 passes through both points. We will substitute the xx-values of the points into the equation and see if we get the corresponding yy-values.
  10. Check Equation II: To rewrite equation II in slope-intercept form, we solve for yy:
    4x6y=124x - 6y = -12
    6y=4x12-6y = -4x - 12
    y=46x+2y = \frac{4}{6}x + 2
    y=23x+2y = \frac{2}{3}x + 2.Now, let's check if equation II in the form y=23x+2y = \frac{2}{3}x + 2 passes through both points. We will substitute the xx-values of the points into the equation and see if we get the corresponding yy-values.For point (3,0)(-3,0), substituting x=3x = -3 into equation II gives us 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1200. This equals the yy-value of the point, which is 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1222. Therefore, equation II passes through the point (3,0)(-3,0).
  11. Check Equation II: To rewrite equation II in slope-intercept form, we solve for yy:
    4x6y=124x - 6y = -12
    6y=4x12-6y = -4x - 12
    y=46x+2y = \frac{4}{6}x + 2
    y=23x+2y = \frac{2}{3}x + 2.Now, let's check if equation II in the form y=23x+2y = \frac{2}{3}x + 2 passes through both points. We will substitute the xx-values of the points into the equation and see if we get the corresponding yy-values.For point (3,0)(-3,0), substituting x=3x = -3 into equation II gives us 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1200. This equals the yy-value of the point, which is 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1222. Therefore, equation II passes through the point (3,0)(-3,0).For point 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1244, substituting 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1255 into equation II gives us 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1266. This equals the yy-value of the point, which is 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1288. Therefore, equation II passes through the point 4x6y=124x - 6y = -1244.
