Answer:
The missing coordinate is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the coordinates
A( , 0), B(5, 10)
and also the slope m=2
we have to find the missing x-coordinate
Let the missing coordinate is x
[tex]\text{The slope of the line joining the points }(x_1,y_1)\text{ and }(x_2, y_2)\text{ is }[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
[tex]\text{The slope of the line joining the points }A(x,0)\text{ and }B(5, 10)\text{ is }[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{10-0}{5-x}[/tex]
[tex]2=\frac{10}{5-x}[/tex]
[tex]2(5-x)=10[/tex]
[tex]10-2x=10[/tex]
[tex]x=0[/tex]
Hence, the missing coordinate is 0
