Q:

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar. The graph of a linear equation passes through three of these points: (0, 5), (2, 2), (3, 1), and (4, -1). The point that the graph does not pass through is

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:(3,1)Step-by-step explanation:Calculate the rise-over-run ratio to find the slope between the points.r/r between 0,5 and 2,2 was -3/2 r/r between 2,2 and 4,-1 was -3/2r/r between 0,5 and 4,-1 was -6/4 = -3/2r/r between 0,5 and 3,1 was -4/3r/r between 2,2 and 3,1 was -1/1as you can see the r/r for the points involving 3,1 was inconsistent with the rest, therefore it is not part of the linear system.
