Answer:

  • 4x - 9y + 28 = 0

------------------------

Find the slope of AB:

  • m(AB) = (8 - 4)/(11 - 2) = 4/9

Use point-slope form and point A(2, 4) to determine the line:

  • y - 4 = (4/9)(x - 2)

Multiply both sides by 9 to clear fraction:

  • 9(y - 4) = 4(x - 2)

Open parenthesis and convert the equation into ax + by + c = 0:

  • 9y - 36 = 4x - 8 ⇒
  • 4x - 9y - 8 + 36 = 0 ⇒
  • 4x - 9y + 28 = 0
