Problem 2

A line can be described by the equation y1x3=13\frac{y-1}{x-3}=\frac13. Is the point (33,12)(33,12) on this line? Explain or show your reasoning.

Show Solution
Solution
No. Sample reasoning: Since 121333=1130\frac{12-1}{33-3}=\frac{11}{30} and not 13\frac13, the point (33,12)(33,12) does not make the equation true.
