Question

Which statements about the line that passes through (−2, 0) and (2, −4) are true? Select all that apply.
A. The slope of the line is 1.
B. The line intersects the y-axis at (0, −2).
C. The equation of the line is y = −x − 2.
D. The line intersects the x-axis at (−2, 0).

Answer 1

Answer:

the equation of line from 2 point form can be seen as..(y-0)=(-4-0)÷(2+2)×(x+2). on solving we get y=-x-2.Option C is correct. putting, y=0, in the equation that we obtained, we get x=-2.therefore, (-2,0) is the point of intersection of the line with x axis. Option D is forrect too. similarly, option B is correct too. but slope of line is -1 , hence option A is incorrect
