Algebra.Com's Answer #470530 by Cromlix(4381)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Using the gradient formula: \n" ); document.write( "y2 - y1/x2 - x1 \n" ); document.write( "y - 1/5 - 2 \n" ); document.write( "y-1/3 \n" ); document.write( "y - 1/3 = 4 \n" ); document.write( "Cross multiply \n" ); document.write( "y - 1 = 12 \n" ); document.write( "y = 13 \n" ); document.write( "Coordinates for B = (5,13) \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps. \n" ); document.write( ":-) \n" ); document.write( " |
