Question

(6,7)and (8,-4)

Answer 1

use the slope formula to get the slope

Answer 2

Slope is \[Slope = \Delta y / \Delta x \]

Answer 3

but how would I solve for m

Answer 4

In this case \[\Delta y = 7 - (-4) = 7 + 4 = 11\] and \[\Delta x = 6 - 8 =-2\]
Therefore the slope is the ratio -11/2

Answer 5

m is the symbol used in most textbooks to represent the slope

Answer 6

y2-y1/x2-x1 = 7-(-4)/6-8=
m=11/-2
m=-5.5

Answer 7

@ Angel198 so would m-5.5 be the answers

Answer 8

Yes, m = -11/2 = -5.5

Answer 9

Yes, -5.5 would be the answer. Slope is -5.5

Answer 10

Slope is also called m, so M=-5.5
