Which of the following equations represent a line that passes through the points below
(-2,-8) (0,2)

A: y= -5x+5
B: y=5x+5
C:y=1/5x+5
D: y=-1/5+5

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = y intercept

m represents the slope of the line.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The line passes through (- 2, - 8) and (0, 2),

y2 = 2

y1 = - 8

x2 = 0

x1 = - 2

Slope,m = ( 2 - - 8)/(0 - - 2) = 10/2 = 5

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute x = 0, y = 2 and m = 5 into y = mx + c. It becomes

2 = 5 × 0 + c

2 = 0 + c

c = 2

c = - 8

The equation becomes

y = 5x + 2

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.
