Answer 1

slope formula is y2 -y1 over x2-x1 so just solve that aquation

Answer 2

will it be 1/12?

Answer 3

Ok well in our coordinate pair For example lets take (-2, -5) our -2 is our x value and -5 is our y value

Answer 4

will it be -3/12

Answer 5

\(\large {-7-(-5) \over 1-(-2)} \)
Can you solve from here?

Answer 6
