KeerthanaPosted on The value of xxx, if the slope of the line joining (−8,(-8,(−8,,11), (2,x)(2, x)(2,x) is (−43)left(frac{-4}{3} ight)(3−4) will be a13frac{1}{3}31 b53frac{5}{3}35 c−73frac{-7}{3}3−7 d73frac{7}{3}37 Answer : Option CExplanation : We know that Slope of a line =y2−y1x2−x1=frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=x2−x1y2−y1 −43=x−112+8frac{-4}{3}=frac{x-11}{2+8}3−4=2+8x−11 ⇒−43=x−1110⇒−40=3x−33Rightarrow frac{-4}{3}=frac{x-11}{10} Rightarrow-40=3 x-33⇒3−4=10x−11⇒−40=3x−33 ⇒−40+33=3xRightarrow-40+33=3 x⇒−40+33=3x ⇒−7=3xRightarrow-7=3 x⇒−7=3x ⇒x=−73Rightarrow x=frac{-7}{3}⇒x=3−7 Rate This:NaN / 5 - 1 votesAdd comment
