Question

The slope of a line passing through H (-2, 5) is -3/4. Which ordered pair represents a point on this line?

A. (6, -1)
B. (2, 8)
C. (-5, 1)
D. (1, 1)
ok so i dont get questions like these when they put fractions. I basically need help understanding the whole question. Can someone break it down for me or something or make it easier for me to undertsand? Please !

Answer 1

Hi! I finally chose an answer even though no one helped. Anyway I chose B, (2, 8). Can someone PLEASE check my answer? It would be greatly appreciated, ty!

Answer 2

x = 2 and y = 8 ?
==================
H (-2, 5) and m = -3/4
5 = -(3/4)(-2) + b
5 = 3/2 + b
b = 7/2
so the line is
y = -(3/4) x + 7/2
or
4 y + 3 x = 14
now try x = 2 and y = 8
no way
