Answer 4

@Directrix I PUT A AM I RIGHT?

Answer 5

I did not get 1 for the slope.
Did you use (-5,2) and (-3,4) as the coordinates of D and A, respectively?
I think there may be a sign error in the answer. Check your work and I'll check mine.

Answer 6

K

Answer 7

I think I messed up. The line determined by the points has to have a positve slope because the line is rising.

m = [ (2 - 4)] /[ (-5) - (-3) ] = ?
What does m equal?

Answer 8

-2/8=-4

Answer 9

What does (2 - 4) =

Answer 10

visually you can eliminate choice A

why?

because AD is a line that slopes upward as you move from left to right

so the slope must be some positive number

Answer 11

-2

Answer 12

Also, what does (-5) - (-3) =

Answer 13

8

Answer 14

Right on -2 but not the second calculation.

(-5) - (-3) = -5 + 3 = ?

Answer 15

@tigersandbulls Waiting for you on answer to -->(-5) - (-3) = -5 + 3 = ?

Answer 16

8=-2 @Directrix SRRY I WAS TAKING MY DOG OUT

Answer 17

So, the slope m = [ (2 - 4)] /[ (-5) - (-3) ] = (-2)/(-2) = ???
@tigersandbulls

Answer 18

-2/8=1

Answer 19

ITS D

Answer 20

Where did you get the 8?
D is not the answer.
The slope cranks out to (-2)/(-2).
What is -2 divided by -2 ? -----> @tigersandbulls
