Question
Do the points in each set lie on the same line? Explain your answer.$$P(4,2), Q(-3,2), R(2,5)$$
Step 1
The slope formula is given by: \[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \] Substituting the coordinates of points P and Q into the formula, we get: \[ m_{PQ} = \frac{2 - 2}{-3 - 4} = \frac{0}{-7} = 0 \] Show more…
