Find the slope of line passing through the points (4,8) and (6, -2).

Question

hartnn · Answer

The slope of the line through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by :
$\huge m=\frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2}$
now,just put the values and find m.

no comprende

anonymous · Answer

m = slope.  y2 and y 1 , x2 and x 1 are all coordinates on your graph

anonymous · Answer

so in the coordinate (4,8) which is x?

anonymous · Answer

m= y2-y1 / x2- x1
m=(-2-8) / (6-4)
m=-10 / 2
m=-5

@Kelly226, that does nothing for he user to help him to figure out how to solve the problem.  It is much more constructive if you do not just give the answers with work shown or not work shown.
