Two students created a list of steps for the following construction..given AB and poibt C construct a line parallel to AB thst passes through poibt C

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Choice A is not on the line given by f(x)

Discussion:

Let f(x) = y =  (5/2)x + 6

Point A:  (2,7)

Is 7 = (5/2)(2) + 6 ?

7 = 5 + 6 ?          No, so A is not on the line

Point B:  (4,16)

Is 16 = (5/2)(4) + 6 ?

16 = 10 + 6 ?          Yes, so B is on the line

Point C:  (-2,1)

Is 1 =  (5/2)(-2) + 6 ?

1 =  -5 + 6 ?           Yes, so C is on the line

Thank you,

MrB
