Problema Solution

Find the value of x such that (x,-3), (2,6) are apart of the graph of a line with a slope of 3/2

Answer provided by our tutors

the slope of a line that goes trough points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is


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


in our case


m = (6 - (-3))/(2 - x)


(6 - (-3))/(2 - x) = 3/2


by solving we find


x = -4
