question 56

Multiple Choice

Find an equation of the secant line containing (1, f(1) ) and (2, f(2) ) .
- $f ( x ) = \sqrt { x + 48 }$

• A) \(y = ( - 5 \sqrt { 2 } - 7 ) x - 5 \sqrt { 2 } + 14\)
• B) \(y = ( 5 \sqrt { 2 } - 7 ) x - 5 \sqrt { 2 } + 14\)
• C) \(y = ( - 5 \sqrt { 2 } + 7 ) x + 5 \sqrt { 2 } - 14\)
• D) \(y = ( 5 \sqrt { 2 } - 7 ) x + 5 \sqrt { 2 } - 14\)
