A line includes the points (-8,8) and (6,4). Select the correct point slope form equations of this line. (Remember there can be more than one) Group of answer choices

y-8=(-2/7)(x+8)

y+8=(-2/7)(x-8)

y-4=(-2/7)(x-6)

first and third options

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Calculate m using the slope- formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 4)

m = = = -

using (a, b ) = (- 8, 8 ), then

y - 8 = - (x - (- 8) ) , that is

y - 8 = - (x + 8) ← first option

using (a, b ) = (6, 4 ), then

y - 4 = - (x - 6) ← third option

answer: the distance

step-by-step explanation:

to calculate the distance d of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula d (x2 x1)2 (y2 y1)2. to calculate the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) use the formula
