Question

Which of the following is the slope between the points (2, 3) and (-3, 0)?

-5/3

5/3

-3/5

3/5

Answer 1

Slope of a line passing through two points (x1,y1) & (x2,y2) is given by the formula
\[\large Slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}\]

Answer 2

Can you try to plug in the values of x1,y1,x2 & y2 and find the slope?

Answer 3

option D is right answer

Answer 4

(x1,y1) = (2,3)
(x2,y2) = (-3,0)

x1=2 y1=3
x2=-3 y2=0

\[\large Slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}= \frac{0 - 3}{-3-2}\]
