Write an equation of the line in point-slope form that passes through the two given points: (-17,8), (3,-2)

y+2 = (-1/2)(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that as we move from (-17,8) to (3,-2), x increases by 20 and y decreases by 10.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = -10/20, or m = -1/2.

The standard equation in point-slope form is y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) is a point on the line and m is the slope of the line.  Then, taking data from the point (3, -2), we have

y+2 = (-1/2)(x-3).

Check:  Does the point (-17,8) satisfy this equation?  Is 8+2 = (-1/2)(-17-3) true?

Is 10 = 10 true?  Yes.

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq
