NEED HELPPP FAST PLZZZZ???!!!??? On a coordinate plane, line A B goes through (negative 4, 0) and (2, negative 3). Point C is at (negative 2, 2). Which point on the x-axis lies on the line that passes through point C and is parallel to line AB? (1, 0) (1, 1) (0, 2) (2, 0)

Answer:

D. last option

Step-by-step explanation:

(2,0)

The point (2,0) on the x-axis lies on the line that passes through point C and is parallel to line AB.

Given:

A line AB goes through (-4, 0) and (2, -3).

Point C is at (-2, 2).

To find:

A point on the x-axis lies on the line that passes through point C and is parallel to line AB.

Solution:

A line passing through (-4,0) and (2,-3), the slope of the line be will be given by:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\frac{-3-0}{2-(-4)}=\frac{-3}{6}=\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]

Another line passing through point C (-2,2) parallel to line AB.

When the two lines are parallel their slopes are equal.

The slope of a line passing through point C =[tex]m =\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]

The equation of the line through point C (-2,2) will be

[tex](y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)\\\\(y-2)=\frac{-1}{2}(x-(-2))\\\\2(y-2)=-x-2\\\\2y-4=-x-2\\\\x+2y=4-2\\\\x+2y=2[/tex]

The point on the x-axis lies on the line that passes through point C will be determined by keeping y equal to 0 in its line equation.

[tex]x+2y=2\\\\Put, y=0\\\\x+2\times 0=2\\\\x=2[/tex]

The point (2,0) on the x-axis lies on the line that passes through point C and is parallel to line AB.
