Which of the following is the slope between the two points (-5, -1) and (6, -4)? a.3/11 b.-3/11 c.11/3 d.-11/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to find the slope you use the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you find the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think i have it i just went to see if i am rite i belive it was d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm not really

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4--1/6--5= -3/11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can choose either values for x1,x2 and y1,y2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oookay thanks

The points given (-5, -1) and (6, -4) are of the form (x, y) Slope is determined by the change in Y over the change in X like Alisha said Looks like you had your x's and y's reversed.
