A straight line passes through the point...

A straight line passes through the points (2,4) and (5,-2).Taking 1 cm=1 unit, mark these points on a graph paper and draw the straight line through these points. If points (m,-4) and (3,n) lie on the line drawn, find the values of m and n.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Mark the Points on Graph Paper 1. **Identify the points**: We have two points, \( A(2, 4) \) and \( B(5, -2) \). 2. **Draw the axes**: On the graph paper, draw the x-axis and y-axis, labeling them appropriately. 3. **Mark point A**: Locate point \( (2, 4) \) by moving 2 units along the x-axis and 4 units up on the y-axis. Mark this point. 4. **Mark point B**: Locate point \( (5, -2) \) by moving 5 units along the x-axis and 2 units down on the y-axis. Mark this point.
