Question 7 (4 points)
What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (3.-1) and (-2,-5)?
Question 8 15 points)​

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\frac { 4 } { 5 } [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following two points and we are to find the slope of the line which passes through these points:

[tex](3.-1)[/tex] and [tex](-2,-5)[/tex]

The formula of the slope is given by:

Slope = [tex] \frac { y _ 2 - y _ 1 } { x _ 2 - x _ 1 } [/tex]

Substituting the given coordinates in the above formula:

Slope = [tex] \frac { - 5 - ( - 1 ) } { - 2 - 3 } = \frac { 4 } { 5 } [/tex]
