The point slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (-5,-1) and (10,-7) is y+7=-2/5(x-10) what is the standard from of the equation

the standard form of the equation is:

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the standard equation of a line is given by

so, on converting the above point slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (-5,-1) and (10,-7) i.e. into the standard form of the equation.

firstly we'll multiply both side of the equation by 5 to have

Hence, the standard form of the given equation of line is:  .

We are given that the dimensions are 4 in x 9 in. To get the smallest possible square, first let us find for the LCM of 4 and 9.

4 = 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36

9 = 0, 9, 18, 27, 36

We can actually see that 36 is the least common multiple.

Therefore the smallest possible square has a dimension of:

36 inches by 36 inches
