Question

Below are two sets of points. Find the slopes between the two points and compare them. Choose the statement that is true about the values of the slopes.

Set #1 Set #2
(0, 4) and (-2, 8) (3, 7) and (-1, -5)

The slope of Set #1 is smaller than the slope of Set #2.

The slope of Set #1 is larger than the slope of Set #2.

The slope of Set #1 is the same as the slope of Set #2.

None of the statements above describes slopes of sets shown.

Answer 1

slope = ( Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)
now you can do it.

Answer 2

thats the part i dont know

Answer 3

point 1(0,4), point 2(-2,8)
so X1=0 and Y1=4
X2=-2 and Y2=8
put it in the equation of slope
and slope becomes
(8-4)/(-2-0) = 4/-2 = -2
so for Set #1 slope is -2
now you try for Set #2

Answer 4

12/4

Answer 5

help me

Answer 6

yes 12/4 = 3

Answer 7

so it D???
