Question

What is the slope of the line which passes through (4, 7) and (2, 3)?

Answer 1

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow Slope = \Large{\Delta y \over \Delta x} = {y_2 - y_1 \over x_2 - x_1} }\)

Answer 2

is it 3?

Answer 3

-2/-2

Answer 4

I find that to be 1.

Answer 5

oh... thank you

Answer 6

but wouldnt it just be -2 then?

Answer 7

Wait, it'd be 2.

Answer 8

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow \large{3 - 7 \over2 - 4} }\)

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow \large{-4 \over -2} }\)

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 2 }\)
