Question

what is the slope of the line containing the points (1, 3) and (-4, 0).

Answer 1

\[\huge slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\]
\[\huge \implies slope = \frac{0 - 3}{-4-1}\]
got it/

Answer 2

its -3/-5?

Answer 3

Slope is supposed to be change in y over change in x, but there is a crappy formula too.

\(\Rightarrow \Large {y_2 - y_1 \over x_2 - x_1 }\)

Answer 4

yup you're right but you can cancel the negatives

Answer 5

Yes, -3/-5 can be simplified. Cancel the negatives ;0

Answer 6

thanks guys! your amazing!
