Question

What is the slope of the line between the points (–3, 5) and (5, 1)?

Answer 1

The slope of the line through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by :
\(\huge m=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}\)
now,just put the values and find m.

Answer 2

slopes btwn points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Answer 3

@caught , so what did u get m=... ?

Answer 4

-2 dont know if that correct

Answer 5

only slope was asked..

Answer 6

no, not -2, but close...

Answer 7

@hartnn

My bad lol :P

Answer 8

what u got y1-y2 =.... ?

Answer 9

m=y_2-y_1/x_2-x_1


(x_1,y_1)=(–3, 5)
and
(x_2,y_2)= (5, 1)?
