how do i find x and y for (9,17) and what is the slope for (12,8)(15,22)

Question

I need to know as soon as possible please

Answer 1

(12, 8) and (15,22) have a line through them

with a linear equation

with slope = rise over run = (22-8)/(15-12) = 14/3

the equation is

y-8 = (14/3)(x-12)

but (9,17)

makes it

17-8 = (14/3)(9-12)

9 = -14

a contradiction

which doesn't add up

so a non-linear equation is needed to fit all 3 points

plot the 3 points. An upward opening parabola would go through all 3, with a vertex x coordinate slightly less than 12

or maybe all you were asking were 2 separate questions

what is x and y for (9,17)? x=9 and y=17. (x,y)=(9,17).

and the slope for a straight line through the other 2 points, which is 14/3.
