Can anyone explain how to use slope in this question?
Use the concept of slope to find t such that the three points are collinear.
(-3,3) (t,-1), (8,6)
I think the slope is 3/11 o.o but don't know how to find t.

Hello
find the slope between (-3,3) and (8.6):
m = (6-3)/(8- -3) = 3/11
Using the components of the third point and of the first point with the same m:
m = 3/11 = (t- 3)/(-1 - -3) = (t - 3)/2)
6/11 = t - 3
t = 6/11 + 3 = 39/11
Regards
