The equation of the straight line containing the points is
4x - y + 7 = 0.
Given:
The points (1,11),(2,15),(-3,-5)
To Find:
Prove the points are collinear and find the equation of the straight line containing them.
Solution:
Let A(1,11), B(2,15), C(-3,-5) be the points.
Slope of AB = (15-11)/(2-1) = 4
Slope of BC = (-5-15)/(-3-2) = 4
Hence, the points (1,11),(2,15),(-3,-5) are collinear.
Equation of the straight line =
y - 11 = ((15-11)/(2-1))(x-1)
y-11 = 4(x-1)
=> 4x - y + 7 = 0
Hence, the equation of the straight line containing the points is
4x - y + 7 = 0.
