What is the equation the line that passes through the points (2,4) and (4,0)

The equation of the line is 2 x + y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given points are ( 2, 4) & ( 4, 0)

Equation of a line whose points are given such that

( ) & ( )-

 y -  =    ( x - )

i.e.  y - 4 =   ( x- 2)

    y - 4 =   ( x - 2 )

    y - 4 = - 2  ( x - 2 )

     y - 4 =  - 2 x + 4

    2 x + y = 8

Hence the equation of the required line whose passes trough the points ( 2, 4) & ( 4, 0)  is 2 x + y = 8.

one fourth of 9% = 2.25%

gavin is correct in saying : the equivalent quarterly interest rate would be

2.25%.
