Question
Slope of the line AB is 4/3. Co-ordinates of points A and B are (x, -5) and (2, -3) respectively. What is the value of x?
The correct answer is
1/2
To find the value of x, use the formula for the slope of a line: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Substituting the values of points A(x, -5) and B(2, -3), we solve for x and get the value as 1/2.
