Question 1152849
Find an equation of the straight line passing through the points with coordinates (4, −7)
and (−6, 11), giving your answer in the form ax + by + c = 0,where a, b and c are
integers.
The line crosses the x-axis at point A and the y-axis at point B and O is the origin.
(b) Find the area of triangle AOB.
slope =y2-y1/x2-x1        m=11+7/-6-4=18/-10=-9/5
equation of line 
y+7=-9/5(x-4)
5y+35=-9x+36
9x+5y-1=0    point A on x axis (1/9,0)    point B on Y axis (0,1/5)  o point (0,0)
area of triangle AOB=1/2( basexalt)=1/2(1/45)=1/90
area  =1/90 unit square
