Find the equation of the line that passes through the points (–2, 4) and (1, 2).
Select the appropriate response
A) y = (– 2/3)x - 8/3
B) y=1/2x+1
C) y = (– 2/3)x + 8/3

Help please, and maybe explain? thank you!!

The answer to your question is c)    y = (-2/3)x + 8/3    

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-2, 4)

B (1, 2)

Process

1.- Calculate the slope of the line

-Formula

  m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

  x1 = -2    y1 = 4    x2 = 1   y2 = 2

-Substitution

  m = (2 - 4) / (1 + 2)

-Simplification

  m = -2/3

2.- Find the equation of the line

Formula

    y - y1 = m(x - x1)

-Substitution

   y - 4 = -2/3 (x + 2)

-Simplify

   y - 4 = (-2/3)x - 4/3

   y = (-2/3)x - 4/3 + 4

   y = (-2/3)x - 4/3 + 12/3

-Result

   y = (-2/3)x + 8/3    

ian gone lie this got me confused

step-by-step explanation:

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
