Math Problem Statement

Plot the pair of points and the line passing through them. (0, 0), (−5, 6)

Solution

Here is the plot of the points (0,0)(0, 0) and (5,6)(-5, 6), along with the line passing through them. The line has a slope of 65-\frac{6}{5}, and it extends through these points.

Here are five related questions to expand on this topic:

  1. How do you find the equation of the line given two points?
  2. What is the significance of the slope in a linear equation?
  3. How would the graph change if the points were different?
  4. How do you determine whether two lines are parallel or perpendicular?
  5. How can you use this graph to find the distance between the two points?

Tip: When finding the slope between two points, remember the formula y2y1x2x1\frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} for accuracy.
